For Mature Eyes Only. This is Rated PG at Least.

That title sure does make this post seem scary. It is not scary, but it is most surely for mature eyes only

* if you have a sweet spirit and anatomically correct wording makes you queasy please read no further ( get your mind out of the gutter this is a clean story, just maybe a little risque.


I have never been one of those moms who shy away from teaching the kidletts the correct terms for parts of their body. We use the real words in the Markland house, and we always have. Therefore you will not hear " WEE WEE or "PEE PEE" or any of the terms we use for girls. This being said, I walked in to the Jude Monsters room today and alas he is butt naked from the waist down AGAIN. He just loves to be naked. So instead of my usual " Jude we need to wear clothes it is not modest" I broke out with the big guns
" Jude you don't want to show everyone your ( insert anatomically correct word for the male anatomy here) do you? I know you don't, and that's what will happen if you keep taking your pants off"

here is where I naively believed my then humbled 3 year old would throw on his pants give me a huge hug and say " your right mom thank you"

Did that happen? Really? I was not talking about Logan here, I am talking about the Jude monster, of course that did not happen....Instead this happened...

" I do Mom, I want everyone to see my ( insert anatomically correct word for the male anatomy here) I love my ( insert anatomically correct word for male anatomy here). I want to show everyone because I love my ( insert anatomically correct word for the male anatomy here) sooooo much. Please mom Please."

Needless to say I was shocked. My jaw dropped to the floor and I instantly started searching for my phone so I could share this tidbit with his Pops. Don Juan needed to know Jude's love for himself.

Therefore, this is a fair warning for any friends, family, or just a random person driving by. I apologize ahead of time if you see what my son loves best about himself. If you do happen to see a half naked child and you do notice that it is my Jude Monster please feel free to tell him to clothe himself like the gentleman he is.

Thank you and again I am sorry.
