Tonight, Ben and I went on our usual Sunday evening walk, and took Lemur (on a scooter) and Mister (on a trike). Of course, we ran into neighbors and stopped to talk. The little ones got a bit bored, as little ones do, and Lemur was circling me, hitting my bum, etc. As our conversation was wrapping up, out of the blue he says to me "Mom, you have a penis?" I'm sure I looked mortified, but couldn't help but laugh, as did Ben. The neighbor said "What did he say?" and when Ben repeated it he said "Only from a doctor's kid!" It was hilarious, and one of those moments when you wonder where in the world that came from!
This one ranks up there with the time when my Bug was about the same age (maybe only 2 years old) and we were in line in the grocery store. I was holding him on my hip, and he turned to me, cupping my boobs in his hands and said "Mom, you have big nipples."
Yeah, I've had my fair share of embarrassing kid comments in my time. And I'm sure there are plenty more to come.

Hah, that's too fun! He is just curious. ;)
Janette,
I had no idea, after these years of living just next door. I'll still run and bike with you, just be sure to wear a cup.
