I think this says it all. |
SIDEBAR: If you've ever slept next to a toddler, you know you don't actually sleep. When I wasn't wide awake from the fear of rolling over on her, I was being assaulted by her amazingly strong and accurate "jimmy leg" kicking.
At one point, I had her propped up length wise on the bed, with the wall serving as her support on one side to keep her from falling out of bed while I was on the other side. Somehow, she managed to turn herself so her head was facing the support wall and the rest of her body was lying width wise across the bed. She's 40 inches tall, so on a standard full size bed this left little room for me. I was now trying to avoid her dangerous feet while dangling over the side of the bed.
Back to the main story. While sitting in the pediatrician's waiting room, she not so quietly mentioned to her Mama
"I slept in bed with Papa last night and he didn't have any clothes on."Fortunately, there was nobody else in the room. Can you imagine the reaction you might have had if you'd heard a three year old make that statement? If someone had heard that, I can only imagine how long it would've taken before there was a knock on my front door from someone with a clipboard, standing next to a large police officer.
This is what comes to mind when I think about what she said. |

Hahaha! Yes, thank goodness that was an empty room!
That reminds me of the time the girls began to talk about "Daddy's panties". I can't remember the context [perhaps I've blocked it out], but that led to a bit of education on "panties" versus "underwear"...and that those are words we most often use in the *bathroom*.
