Anatomy lessons

Tonight I bribed Noah to take a bath by telling him that Stephen Drew (shortstop for the Diamondbacks) takes a bath the night before every game. He bought it. Did you know that Connor Jackson (Noah's other favorite player) takes a shower before every game? Trust me, I will be adding this to my arsenal too.

Noah then got naked and started yanking his penis for me. Really. This is further proof that no matter what I do, no matter how precious my beautiful son is, at the end of the day he still will grow up to be like every other man I know. Then he lifted it up and started pointing at other parts of his manhood. All the while asking me, "Mommy, what's this?"

This is when I called Dan in to the room.

I will do many things for my kids. I don't do penises.

And while we're on the subject, why isn't the plural of penis, "peni?"

**Upon reflection, I am starting to wonder if talking about my son's Manhood the Internet might be the single action that drives him into a lifetime of therapy.

In answer to your question, yes it probably will drive him to therapy! But it's amusing in the meantime. Now I'm off to enjoy some mac n cheese :)
