Maria: Mom!!! Cheerio's nose is coming off!
Mom: What?!?
Maria: Her nose is coming off!!! Come look!
Mom: I'll be there in a sec.
Maria: Dad! Daaaaaaddd! Quick! Come look. Cheerio's nose is coming off! Hurry!
Now, I was pretty sure that Cheerio's nose wasn't coming off, but I was a little nervous. Listening to Maria's panicked statements, I thought maybe Cheerio had scraped it on something. I start thinking there'd be blood and maybe some skin hanging off (ewwwwwww).
Thankfully, that was not the case. However, from the outside looking in (we were outside, the dog was inside looking out at us), it did, in fact, look like her nose was not coming off, but rubbing off. Where there was black, it was now mostly golden-brownish -- the color of the rest of her.
Very mysterious.
Maria: Maybe we should get something... like black marker to fix it.
Mom: Ummm... let's see here...
An investigation ensued and we realized it was simply Cheerio-colored dirt covering up part of her normally black nose. Rubbed right off. Thank goodness.

What other items in the house have you "fixed" with markers? Seems Maria has seen that in the past! :)
Kimberly was talking about her sitters today and she was couting them on her fingers and Samantha was the middle one...and we kinda taught her how to hold her middle finger up...we are such bad parents! :)
