Actual conversation:
Jack: “Dad, can this part of your penis fall off?”
(Thank me for sparing the pictures this time)
Dad: “What?!”
Mom: hiding behind book laughing hysterically
Jack: “Is this part of my penis falling off?”
Dad: “I don’t know. Ask your Mom.”
Jack: “Mom, is this part of my penis falling off?”
Mom: “No, I think it’s fine.”
Jack: “Is it bad if this part of your penis falls off?”
Dad: “It’s bad if any part of your body falls off. Go get in the bath.”
Jack: “Ok.” (walks away and looks very concerned)
Dad: “Jack, did your brother tell you that?”
Jack: “Yes.”

Well, I used to tell Marc that and the other boys when they were little and running around outside naked – that the “BIRDS WERE GOING TO THINK IT IS A WORM” and come down and get and it and bring it to the baby birds.
Hysterical! I can’t wait for these kinds of conversations! Where has Steve been?
What is it with Jack's fears about his penis anyway? I'll never forget his nightmare, at our house… when he woke up screaming, "Mom, Mom, I have no penis!!! Mom, I have no penis!" Then he grabbed himself and sighed with relief, "Oh, I have penis," and fell right back to sleep. Grandpa Mike and I just stared at each other and could not fall back to sleep after that.
Please let him know that most penises do not fall off or disappear on their own. :)
And I thought only my boys played these nasty pranks on each other. I’m glad I”m not the only one who had my boys say or ask weird questions! I guess my family is normal, judging it w/your family!
