Frank discussions

*WARNING---We try to be very open with our children about human anatomy, which sometimes ends up with very funny results. If you are offended by this kind of talk, please stop reading here. Because I just HAVE to record this story so that I can remember it. It would be a shame to not be able to relate this to future boyfriends.

The other day, my mom, Jantzen and I were sitting in the living room reading a book that mom had brought to share with the kids. This book was given to her as a gift a couple of years ago, and she had never actually read it. But it was about animals, and so she thought it would be fun for the kids. Apparently, it was given as a joke because it only took a few pages for mom to realize it was all about animal sexuality. And the word "penis" slipped out. Jantzen repeated the word a couple of times, and then the conversation went like this:
Me: Jantzen, do you know what a penis is?
Jantzen: Yeah, it's our balls.
Me: Well, not exactly, but it's a boy's private part. Girls don't have a penis.
Jantzen: Then what do I have?
Me: (regretting I ever started this conversation) You have a vagina. (My most unfavorite word EVER!)
Jantzen: A vagina? I love that word! Vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina! (Then to the tune of some unknown song) Vagina vagina vagina vagina vagina! (Then her tongue gets twisted and it starts to sound different) Bagima bagima bagima bagima bagima bagima
Mom (trying anything to make her stop): Ooh, that sounds like pajama! Pajama pajama pajama
Jantzen: No it doesn't! Bagima bagima bagima bagima!
Me: Aunt Jemima! Aunt Jemima! Aunt Jemima!
Jantzen: Bagima bagima bagima.

Wow, that girl just can't be deterred.
