E has been obsessed with Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderalla lately, so she's been walking around talking like a 50s actress. "Oh fairy godmother, everything is possible. I must go to the ball!"

Did my kid just say that?

As reported by Lambie's teacher.... They talked about doctors in class today.
Lambie: "My daddy is a doctor!"
Teacher: "Yes, Lambie's daddy is a doctor who works with brains."
Lambie: "Oh no, my daddy doesn't have any brains."

We have since had a talk about what Mommy does at work...
Me: "Mommy is a professor."
E: "I can't say that word."
Me: "Mommy teaches grown-ups and does research."
E: "But what about the kids? You have to teach the kids too! I don't know what research is."
Me: "Mommy learns new things about computers at work."
We'll see if it comes again. I'm sure her teacher loves us. We used to just tell her Daddy was a doctor, but then there were Foleys all over the place, like in his car, and she asked what they were, so we told her that Daddy uses them at work to help people go peepee. So...obviously that part stuck.Allison - professor; wife to a urology attending; mom to baby girl E (11/13), baby boy C (2/16), and a spoiled cat; knitter and hoarder of yarn; photographer

Given that Daddy is a urologist, they hear the word "penis" and "pee" a lot. Plus, we've never been shy about using anatomical words since they're not bad words...
And yet EVERY TIME Max takes them to the bathroom, Daphne will loudly ask "are you going to pee out of your penis Daddy?" To be clear, he's not urinating in front of them but they want to know if he's also going to go since I often do. So they ask him if he'll be peeing out of his penis...as if he could pee some other way??Married to a Urology Attending! (that is an understated exclamation point)

"Mama, your underwear is really tucked into your bagina" - D (almost 4) regarding my thong.
There was no response other than, "Yes.", that didn't invite further comment on 1) anatomy, 2) underwear choices, and 3) visible panty lines.Married to a Urology Attending! (that is an understated exclamation point)

My son was playing with his tool set, comes over with the screw driver and says, "Mommy, can you screw me up?".

“Why were you and mommy naked hugging” - D (age 4) after walking in on us at 10 PM last night. She’s gotten out of bed maybe once in the last year. So that was great timing.
