rhinoplasty?

As I mentioned in my post about my new addiction, we are house/dog sitting for Neema and Pa. Although Eva sleeps in a big girl bed at our house, she had a crib here at her grandparents house. The crib makes night time snuggles difficult, but she still has been getting tickles.

For whatever reason (too many to list), I have been even more tired than usual lately. So yesterday instead of standing up and reaching down into the crib to tickle her little back, I sat on the floor and carefully squeezed my arm in through the bars of the crib. (Thankfully my arms are the skinniest thing on me!) As I closed my eyes, leaned on the crib and tickled her, Eva looked at me and said, "Mom, you need to stand up and tickle me." To which I replied, "Mommy's sleepy and wants to sit for your tickles today." At this point my sweet, innocent child stood up in the crib with her hands on her hips and said, "Well, when you are close to me your nose looks like a rhinoceros and I would like it if you tickle me from a little further away...... please."

At least she said please. ;)
