George Washington's Nose

Had a conversation with N this afternoon:

Me:  So, how was school today?
N:  Good, except Jerry "accidentally" got ice chunks stuck in George Washington's nose.
Me:  Accidentally on purpose?
N:  Well, he said he was sorry.  He was pretending the ice chunks were boogers and they got stuck.
Me:  Where do you have a statue of George Washington?
N:  On the playground.  But it's not a statue of George Washington - just his nose.
Me:  Did you make it?
N:  A bunch of us did.  Actually, we found this big piece of hard snow that sort of looked like a nose so we made it into one.
Me:  So you added some details?
N:  Yeah, digging nostrils is really hard work.
Me:   I would think you guys would be naturals at that.  Given all your experience.
N:  (smiles)
Me:  How do you know it's George Washington's nose?
N:  That's just what we decided to call it.
