We were on our way to a friend's riverhouse last week, and I had too much of my large Sonic lime water (if you know me well, you know this is my most favorite drink. EVER.) and my bladder was about to burst. Asher had to go "tee-tee", too, so we stopped at a restaurant to use the restroom. As I squatted over the toilet Asher was carefully watching me:
A: Hey, Momma...where is your pee-pee? I don't see it. Is it missing?
M: Umm...I don't have one.
A: {in a very sympathetic voice with his eyebrows furrowed.} Awww...poor, Momma doesn't have a peepee. I'm sorry, Momma. Your teetee has to come out of your bottom. How sad.
(I carefully-and briefly-went on to explain that girls don't have "pee-pees".)
A: Oh! So, only boys have pee-pees? Only boys and Daddies?
M: Yup. Only boys and daddies.

Asher tooted really loud.
McKlayne: That's a good one, Asher!!
Ha! Hayden was looking at a blog with me the other day. It had a picture of a naked little girl with a heart over her private parts. Okay...that sounds creepy, but you know...it was a friend's blog and her little daughter had just gotten out of the bathtub. Hayden said, "look mom, they put a heart over that little girl's tenders."
ReplyDeleteIn that moment I realized that my sons may not know that girls don't have the same parts as they do...and girls certainly don't call their parts "tenders."
We have some work to do, I guess.
oh goodness!! the explaining starts early!
ReplyDeleteLove that McKlayne is getting in on the FF!
Oh My! I hope Ava is this funny...

hahahahaha...! That's too funny.
ReplyDeleteWhat am I going to do when my son can talk...oh Gosh.
I'm your newest follower! Love your site!
AHAHAH! I have a funny story similar to this one. At costco with my kids, had to take both of them with me to use the restroom. As I pulled my jeans down and squatted (public restrooms - YUCK!) my 5 year old son walked up and said "MOM! You have mud on you!!" My little girl replied so simply "No, T! That's not mud - that's just Mommy's FUR!" Silence in the whole restroom for a moment and then giggles erupted. Walk of shame to wash my hands... Kids!
ReplyDeleteOk, I was almost crying with laughter at Asher saying "poor mama" and then heather's comment sent me over the edge.... you guys crack me up!
ReplyDeleteI know, Linds, Hayden's comment had me cracking up, too!! Poor boys...don't know what's ahead of them...I guess that's good!
