The Fascination Begins

I had just rolled out of bed and was still in my pajamas getting breakfast ready when Gabe walked up to me and gave me a big hug. Then he pulled back and gave me a good long look and said with an empowered giggle, "Mom, I see your bras. (plural)"

"What?!?" I said. "I'm in my pajamas Gabe, I'm not wearing a bra."

"No Mom," he says, "Not the one you wear....your HUMAN bras."

I took my son through the bra section at Kohls the other day. He saw a 38DD and with wide eyes exclaimed, "Mom! Those FREAK ME OUT!!!"

His mom is a little on the small side.

Alex used to call them my camels, we had read a book about a camel with two humps. Brad thought it was a lot funnier that I did.

My 5 year old says the same thing. It is an improvement on his previous terms:" breastfeeders, those circle thing on your chest, etc. How their little minds work!

I don't remember my kids having funny names for those, but the bras (the kind you wear) are another story. My kids used to call them "breastplates". (And someone would inevitably add, "...of righteousness!")

Oh, dear. Then again my 2yo walked around a playgroup talking about his nipples and trying to find out if other people have them, too. All because of the innocent question, "What those?" when looking at his chest in the bathtub...

LOL....having boys is fun, no? Thank God I thought of a clever thing to call "the girls" when I started nursing Miss Precious. They started asking all sorts of questions and I told them it was God who made the milk. They shortened it to "God milk" and that is what they will remain until we have to have the big anatomy lesson when they are older. LOL...human bra...lol...kids come up with the craziest things!
