Where Do You See Her Asshole?
Tonight the little angel and I read books before bed. One of the books was Once Upon a Potty. Part of this book discusses the different parts of Prudence's body and what they are called.
Me: "Can you point to Prudence's eyes?"
The little angel pointed.
Me: "Good! Can you point to Prudence's ears?"
The little angel considers the picture, then decides Prudence's wiry ponytails are her ears. Good enough.
Me: "Good! Can you point to Prudence's hands?"
The little angel nails the hands.
I look at the next page, where Prudence is leaning over, Girls Gone Wild-style, revealing a small circle that is the hole from which her poopy comes out (I know, because it says so in the text).
Me: "CAn you point to where Prudence expels her fecal matter?"
The little angel laughs.
Me: "Okay, fine. Where does Prudence's poopy come out?"
The little angel has not considered this before. She carefully studies the picture.
Me: "Do you see a hole where the poopy might come? Like where we put your diapers?"
The little angel finds the hole.
And I am deeply disturbed by the entire conversation.
Damn, parenting is hard.
