Super Muscles is a very observant little guy. The other day we were at the ball park watching Daddy play softball. There was a young woman at the park with her HUGE great dane. His name was Jackson and I am pretty sure he weighed at least 140 lbs. GIANT. Super Muscles head was the only part of him that stood taller than this dog. The child was in love and went immediately over to Jackson's owner to ask if he could pet, touch and otherwise bother the huge dog. I walk over to find SM looking over every.single.inch. of Jackson. He is talking about everything. Mouth and brain both working at record speeds. "Mom, Jackson has very short hair and it is white. He is very different than Jade. Jade has long black hair that comes off her body when you pet her" "Wow, you can see spots on Jackson under his hair" "Mom, he has a long tail with a big black spot on it" "His head is really big, bigger than mine and he has saggy eyes". So many observations from my curious 4 year old.
Then... it happened! Something that made everyone erupt in laughter and proved to me that my son has a very firm grasp on what makes boys boys and girls girls. Next thing I know my son is leaning over looking under neat the dog and exclaims loudly "WOW! Hey Mom! Jackson is DEFINITELY a boy!!!" Yes son, good observation. If anyone has missed it, boys are obsessed with their private parts... and mine is apparently impressed by the not-so private parts of huge male dogs.
Anyway, it provided many of us with many moments of laughter. Hope it made you smile too.
