After a child learns to identify their head, shoulders, knees, and toes...what next?
Well of course their curiosity progresses to other body parts.
Charly now knows that girls have vaginas and boys have penises. Yes, we refused to succumb to calling it pee-pee or wee-wee or some other name that may lead to confusion.
She now proudly tells my mom over the phone that Pepe and Riggs have penises. And, like most kids her age are wont to do, repeats it over and over just to make sure her listener got what she was saying the first time around.
Charly: Pepe has penis, penis, penis.
My mom: What?
Me: She's just saying her dog has a penis.
My mom: Why does she need to say that?
Me: I don't know. Why do kids say anything really? Maybe in case we didn't notice?
Is this listed as an official milestone in the baby books?
