"I am mad I put the top up my nose"

Normally bath time is a fun time for Sabrina.   She loves playing with her little plastic fish and her little mermaid collection.   Today's fun time was interrupted by a high pitched cry and a plea to "get it out".   She had taken Ariel's bikini top and put it up her nostil where it got stuck.   Try as we could to see the purple plastic small part, it was up too far.   (probably pushed farther by Sabrina's finger trying to get it out).    After a couple of hours of monitoring, trying to blow it out, propping Sabrina up with pillows and praying that gravity would remove the top, we ventured to Urgent Care to have it removed professionally.
We could tell that the nose item was painful as she sat quietly most of the two hour wait patiently looking at a Hidden Picture magazine.   When the doctor finally appeared to look at Sabrina's nose, Sabrina was super cooperative and told the doctor everything about the mistake of putting the top in her nose.    Thankfully, the doctor was able to see the top and remove it with little problem.   Sabrina was super brave and still for the extraction.   On the way home in the car she announced, "I am mad I put the top up my nose."   This was followed by a conversation how nothing will ever go up her nose again.    We can hope!
