Funny thing just happened

[drmccleary]

Alright I have a curious three year boy and one year old boy. of course our bathroom door doesn't lock and guess who walked in mommy getting out of the shower?!! Well i'll give you a couple hints he can talk and it wasn't daddy. My three year old, who also remembers everything now, sees me as i'm trying to cover myself with the towel. He asks in his most curious voice, "Mama, where's your peepee?" I simply tell him mommys/girls are different than daddys/boys. He accepts the answer and replies," Is your butt on backwards?" I died laughing in which brought my husband and one year old in. By now my three year old has reached the towel and is trying to peek under it and ask, "Do you have 2 butts?" So then i got everyone out and tried not to fall over laughing.

Any suggestions on what to tell him if he asks again? (Besides getting a lock i mean)

OMG!That is sooo funny! I would probably tell him like it is:)boys have peewees?and girls have woowhoos?I don't know how you feel about the right terminology,I call them by their correct terms but I know that everyone is different:)
That was definitly a cute story though,One I'd put in the books!

HAHA! This is hilarious! My husband just gave me a strange, inquiring look because I laughed so hard.

im crackin up.. thats too funny. i'd just tell him the truth. but that's just me. and im like fuzzy2, i use correct terminology.

Hi..why don`t you tell him the truth?? What is the problem? And why do you cover your naked body if one of your kids enters the bathroom?
That is normal. They want to know everything and that is their right.
I work in a hospital in a gynecological outpatient clinic, we also have a special time when we just treat little children/girls. Children should learn the right words ect. like penis/peepee/vagina a.s.o.
For example: or do you have a nickname for your arm a.s.o?? NO.
Thats why you always should answer correct.

Thanks for the giggles with me! But he actually remembered and asked again. So yes I told with the best of my ability (and a straight face) what it was and no mama's butt is not on backwards! I honestly don't know if he understand quite yet but he's pretty quick at picking up on things! Thanks again!!

"butt on backwards" seems like a perfectly reasonable explanation

and i'm voting for keep the kid informed...
