Hippos

While bathing Matthew, he pointed his body and asked "What these?"

"Those are nipples."

"Oh, hippos." He thought for a minute and asked, "what they for?"

"Well, on Mamas they are for nursing babies, but on boys and Daddies they are for decoration."

"Why hippos for decoration?"

"I don't know son. That's just the way God made you."

For once he accepted that explanation without launching into 20 questions.

I am not really looking forward to discussing "the birds and the bees." I'm sure that's coming up soon...
