Conversations with Dylan (5 years old)

Dylan: (in all seriousness)Mom, I know what boobies look like.

Me: (eyebrows raised) You do?

Dylan: Yes! They are big (eyes getting large), round (hands motioning in circles) and have little dots in the middle!

Me: Oh(wondering if his big-buxomed kindergarten teacher has been leaning over too much in class). How did you know all this?

Dylan: Well, we saw it on tv in Canada. We were changing channels to go to PBS Kids when we saw it on one of the channels.

Me: (thinking I better have a child lock on our cable subscription) Well, Dylan, you know boobies are just body parts. Just like how boys have willies, girls have boobies. It's not a big deal. Stop making a big deal out of it, you understand?

Dylan: Ok. Can you show me your boobies then? (Smiling) They're just body parts.

Me: Argh!
