The middle man

We had to have the "private parts" talk with Will recently.

It all started when our friend Katy was over one day and Will was getting changed for a big event.

"Hey, Katy!" Will said. "Look at my MIDDLE!"

Insert the little "shake, shake, shake ... shake your booty" dance his Aunt Sara taught him here.

"Middle" was the word he used, one we'd never used for that particular appendage, but we all knew what he meant, even without a wide-open size 5T trenchcoat.

Anyway, we had the talk and I thought Will got it until later that night.

He is notoriously bad at sitting still while I cut his toenails and it usually ends up with us arguing over why it is so difficult to sit still. Will's main excuse is that "sitting still is just TOO hard."

Anyway, that night Will tried another tactic to get out of nail-cutting time.

"Mommy," he said. "You cutting my nails is not right. My toes are some of my privacy parts."
