With boys ages 14, 12 and 9 I really thought I had avoided having a child get a small object stuck in his nose or ear. But today my 12 y/o let me check that off my parenting list. I was about to eat my lunch when I hear his panicked voice from downstairs saying, "Mom, I got a button stuck in my ear!" Then he says, "Am I going to die?"
I assured Jay that as far as I know, no one has died from getting a button stuck in his/her ear. At the same time I am wondering if my afternoon is going to be spent at the dr's office or urgent care to get it out. But fortunately it wasn't lodge too far in and Dr. Mom was able to extract it with a pair of tweezers.
Jay promised to never stick a button in his ear again. Glad to hear it!

I once had a popcorn kernel stuck in my ear! It was part of someone's show-and-tell when I was in Kindergarten or 1st grade, and I wanted to use it as an ear plug! Each time I tried to dig it out, it went in further. I ended up going to an ear specialist to get it out haha.
It was great seeing you and the boys for a few days at TWL!
