Beans and scabs



Lissa was checking her beans this morning and on the way back to the house, she fell down and skinned her knees. She cried until I told her she'd have more scabs to pick. Picking scabs is her hobby. Her mom and great gram told her it's an awful habit and she could get infected. I told her to ignore them. Scab picking is an art.

lol Gross but I used to pick my scrabs too when I was a child. Like a hobby.

Yep. She's obsessive about it. She even wanted to pick my mosquito bites when she ran out of her own wounds. LOL! If she can make herself bleed she considers it a job well done. "I'm bweeeeeeeding!"

I'm going to buy her a magnifying glass to double her pleasure. LMAO!

GardenHoe, love the magnifying glass comment! Picking scabs as an art form....much like popping zits!
