A Super-Sleuth Nose


Adrie smells everything. She tells me about everything she smells. So last night while we were visiting Grandma & Grandpa's (brand new) house, she ran over to me and said, "Mommy, there's poo-poo on the wall!" Of course, I responded, "No there isn't." Because why would there be? But she insisted, "Come and see!"

So when I went over to where she and a little friend were playing in Grandma's toy-box, I certainly did catch a whiff of something suspicious. She pointed behind her friend, where, sure enough, was a very large smear of the yucky stuff. It was spread down the outer corner of the closet, down over the baseboard molding. Her little friend, who shall remain nameless, had had an unfortunate overflow.

I told Adrie what a good job she had done in coming to tell me about the "poo-poo on the wall." Way to go, little nose!
