Kids Say the Damnedest Things

Proud parenting moment last night.   I was hanging out in the bathroom with my son where one of his bathing requirements is to have music playing.  The Bluetooth speaker stuck to the shower wall is waterproof, but the phone he uses to control the music isn't, so I sit with him and play DJ.  We were in the middle of probably the 7th rocking-out of "Let It Go" when he started yelling to turn the music off, "Dad, you've got to see this really cool trick I just learned!"  I turned the music off.... my ears were grateful.... and he stood up. "Look dad, I can make my pee pee move without even touching it!"  I looked down and sure as shit... at full attention, his little Rocket Man was bouncing around like a wounded rabbit.

Not knowing whether to laugh, cry, or something in between.... I did the best I could come up with, a smile and a hi-five.

So now the dilemma challenges me.  I hadn't expected dick tricks to come into play for quite some time.  I almost feel obligated now to teach him a few more from the bag (pun intended)... "the woman", "the helicopter",  "the towel hook", and the "Eiffel Tower"?  Nah, I think I'll keep those to myself for a few more years.
