WARNING, Nuts Story Ahead

I know I shouldn't post about this but it is just too dang funny not to!

Bre had me up at 5:30 this morning and Marcus has stayed up till 2 AM at a friend's house. So around noon today we both decided to lay down for a nap.
I was almost asleep when Marcus came into my room asking me how to remove a tick. I told him you have to pull them off. His eyes got big and I asked him if he had a tick and where was it at. He said yeah he had one, and I quote, "on my nuts".
Well that made my eyes open all the way. I told him to turn on the light so I could help him. That is when I seen what he had in his hands...a fingernail file and a pair of scissors! WTH???
After asking him what in the world was he doing he told me that he had tried to CUT the tick off!
Now let me tell you, I am 110% sure that I am done having children but I still want grandchildren one day. So seeing my 10 year old standing there with scissors and knowing that he attempted to cut a very tiny insect off...well you know where...did not do my nerves any good.
Once the tick was pulled off safely with no sharp instruments involved I inspected it to see that part of it was missing so in fact he did actually cut part of it off.

Just when you think a child is old enough that you do not have to watch them 24/7 they go and cut a tick off of their nuts!
