I brought Ellie inside from playing with Will and she was a mess.  Fussy, eyes red and watering, nose running, sneezing.  I think “great.  she has grass allergies, too.”

I feed her lunch and she’s sneezing, rubbing her nose/eyes, just miserable.  And then one sneeze brings down the tip of a piece of grass.  I pull on it and TWO INCHES OF GRASS come out of her nose.  Not crumpled at all—it was up there length-wise.

So maybe she doesn’t have grass allergies.  Maybe she just isn’t able to, you know, shove a 2 inch blade of grass up her nose without consequences.
