The Boys

Henry has been giving me kisses, which is wonderful, except for the fact that he has had strep... And what is funny about them is that he grabs my cheeks and lays a LONG kiss on my lips. It's cute, and I love these kisses - totally - and I hope that he learns a little about brevity as he gets older.

Tonight we had a grand dance party to all Abba music (**heaven!**) in the basement, and it was glorious. I took a break and when I returned Henry was on top of the train table and Walt was without his pants. Oh dear.

Henry stood behind me and wrapped his arms around my neck. "Do you have a penis?"
We've had this discussion before.
"No," I reply.
"Ohhh-" he says sounding sorry for me.
I try to explain to him that it's actually ok, I'm not broken up about it or anything.

I told Henry that he is a big boy today and he told me that he is "a little small" and that he doesn't want to be a big boy. "Why?" I ask.
He tells me that when he is big he can't see me, and that when he is big he will hold me like a baby, like how I hold Walter.
It made me cry.
