The Facts in the Case of the Notorious Nose

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, allow me to present the facts of the case.

First, let us consider Exhibit A: a precocious, strong-willed, spirited two year old male with a pronounced preference for discovery and adventure.

Second, let us consider Exhibit B: the broken off tip of a blue , rounded (as opposed to hexagonal) graphite pencil with extremely thick, highly pigmented lacquer.

Last, let us consider Exhibit C: the average human nose. Now, what would occur in the unfortunate event that Exhibit A decides to put Exhibit B into Exhibit C?

In the matter of "The Oddly Exhilarating Case of the Partially Clogged Left Nasal Passage Prior to Having Dinner at the Lozano Household", a newfound admiration for my son Juan's ability to get himself in and out of trouble in ten seconds or less, which was the amount of time that yours truly left the little tyke unattended while stealing some badly needed nap time before picking Mama Tina up from badminton.
