Overheard in a suburban bathroom.

Kade and Liv had a discussion about private parts during bathtime last night. I think it might be time to separate them, which means more work for me and more work for our hopeless hot water tank…frankly, I don’t think either of us can handle it right now.

Kade: “Don’t touch that. It’s my penis and it’s private.”

Me: “Liv Ellen. Hands to yourself.”

Liv: “Where’s mine?”

Kade: “You don’t have a penis. You have a vagina.”

Liv: “Ha ha ha. I have a bagina.”

They proceed to go about their splashing, giggling business until…

Kade: Leans in with his mouth open and says “Liv can I give you one true love’s kiss?”

Me: “For pete’s sake, Kade. Get off of your sister!” (Wondering if I should worry about his obvious attempt at open-mouthed kissing)

Liv: “Mama. What’s my private called again?”

Me: “A vagina.”

Liv: Singing…”bagina, bagina, bagina.”

Me: Sigh.
