The Outdoors Parent

Since discovering that some plants smell interesting, The Monkey now wants to smell every garden we walk past.  This isn’t too bad, although it does slow down any strolls we take around the neighbourhood.  His brother, however, also wants to join in but doesn’t really have the skills–he tends to blow his nose onto plants rather than to sniff.  So now we’re the family who walk past people’s gardens, have two kids grabbing at flowers for a smell, and one who leaves a small trail of snot across every plant he stops by. Luckily our neighbours think it’s funny.
