I noticed tonight at dinner that Colm had something gross in his ear, so at bathtime I made sure that his ears got cleaned as well. It was so weird and gross I had to show it to him and ask him what he thought it was. His response? Oh, that must be from part of my lunch I put in my ear the other day. Heavy sigh and a chuckle. What else can I do? (I did explain to him that it was not appropriate for him to stick his lunch in his ear, but doesn’t he already know that?)
