bedtime for the boys started out pretty normal tonight. diapers changed, pajamas on, and teeth brushed, we went into Logan’s room to put him to bed first. as usual, Zander helped us sing “rock-a-bye Logan”, and then yelled “bounce!” as daddy plopped Logan in the crib. i said “sweet dreams, sleep well, see you in the morning!”, blew kisses from the doorway, and closed his door. then it was off to Zander’s room.
that’s when the bedtime routine too a sharp left.
i was giving Zander the usual hugs and kisses before putting him to bed when he looked me in the eye with a quizzical look
Zander: mommy…do you have a penis?
my jaw dropped to the floor. i looked towards Carlos to see his jaw was right down there with mine.
me: [stiffleing a giggle] no, i don’t have a penis. only boys have penises.
Zander: does daddy have a penis?
daddy: [grinning mischievously] yup…daddy has a big penis.
Zander: does mommy have a big penis?
me: no…mommies don’t have penises. only boys have a penis. you have a penis, Logan has a penis and daddy has a penis. but girls don’t have penises. they have vaginas.
Zander: [very serious about learning the truth] oh.
where that came from, i have no idea. what i can tell you is that i was so not expecting that.
seriously…where do they get this stuff?
