A button up his nose

Luke was out of town last night so I had plans to take Bishop to get his haircut, stop home and eat dinner and then head down to the Bandshell for a ride on the Trolley.

On the car ride home from the haircut Bishop informed me that he had a heart shaped button stuck up his nose. I looked back to see a freighted boy in the backseat. I told him to leave it alone and not try to get it out, as that could push it up farther and I would check it out when we got home.

I got the headlamp out and a tweezers and I was able to see the button in his nose, but he was kind of squirmish and wasn't really comfortable with me trying to get it out--he mentioned a few times that he wanted to go to the Dr. :( Bishop was very nervous and he felt bad. He asked if he was in trouble.....and then he asked "did you ever put anything up your nose or in your ear when you were younger?" I said "no"....he replied "EVER??". I called Luke----and then I put sunglasses on him (as the light from the headlamp was really bothering him) and I told him if he let me try to get it out and I could get it out I would take him to get a Rootbeer float at the Bandshell. He laid perfectly still and I was able to get it out!! Being it was after hours I was envisioning a night in the Urgent Care (or worse yet, the ER) with both kids. I'm so glad I was able to get it out!  The button was a heart shaped button Nora found at school!?!? Bizarre! It was a little stressful for a bit, but it could have been a lot worse!

Waiting for the trolley

All Aboard!

We walked down to the bandshell, rode the trolley and then got Rootbeer Floats! I later had a thought......that I was rewarding Bishop for putting the button up his nose!! Hopefully they both learned their lesson!
