Here is the gist of a conversation I had with our youngest on the way to daycare this morning. I thought I was going to die laughing, but she was deadly serious about all of these questions! Isn't being a parent just terrific.
Child: Do you have a tail?
Dad: No, I don't have a tail
Child: Did you have a tail when you were a little boy?
Dad: No, I never had a tail
Child: Did you tail fall off?
Dad:People don't have tails
Child: A tail that your pee pee comes out of, do you have one of those?
Dad: Eh, yes, I have one of those
Child: The boys at daycare squeeze theirs to make pee pee come out, we have to go potty with the door open. We can see their tails.
Dad: OK
Child: I've never seen your tail because you always close the door
Dad: Right, that's one of our private body parts, so I go potty with the door closed
Child: Yes, girls sit down to go potty but boys can stand up or sit down. Do you stand up daddy?
Dad: Yes, sometimes I stand up.
Child: Boys can sit down too and then their tails go into the water.
Dad: So are you going to do anything fun at school today?
