Quotable Kid

Tonight I noticed Owen using his shirt to wipe his nose.

Owen, I said, So that's how your shirt got so dirty---
I leaned forward and whispered so no one else would hear me:
You're using it for a boogie catcher!
He looked at me with a scowl and squinted his eyes.
Grammy, he said, That's not all!
Sometimes I use it for a napkin too, for my food!
