This Week’s Theme: Gross


This was a very challenging prompt! There were several photos that I wanted to use, but my kids weren’t having it! And I didn’t have the heart to override their wishes.

So we settled on this photo of Robert playing with Sophie. It appears that he is sticking his nose right into her ear because of the angle and the fact that her hair is up on his cheek. He really wasn’t . . . he was just playing with her and, most likely, nuzzling her little cheek.

What makes it gross? The idea of sticking your nose into your dog’s ear, of course! Doggy earwax? Eeeeewwwwww!

    Doggie earwax would definitely be gross, even from a cutie such as Sophie.

  17. It doesn’t seem gross at the time, when we do stuff like that.

    Strange how our affection for our pets could really make others who may not have pets, curl up their toes in discust
