Things Ben Knows
Dec 19th, 2007 by Tana
Ben’s latest intellectual acquisition is that he, Daddy and Joey are boys and Mommy is a girl. Apparently, this is such an exciting revelation to him that he finds it necessarily to repeat this information aloud many times every day. Including when we’re out shopping. Standing in line at a store. With a whole bunch of other customers.
Anyway, Steve asked him the other evening, How do you know that we are boys and Mommy is a girl?
Ben’s answer: You just know.
And really, I think that’s enough sex education for a four-year-old.
Steve also recently asked Ben who Santa Claus is. [While we haven’t made a big deal about Santa, we haven’t tried to shelter him from the whole Santa-thing either.]
Ben: He wears a red hat with white on it.
Steve: Does he do anything?
Ben: He says, Ho! Ho! Ho!
Steve: Does he do anything else?
Ben: No.
Ben knows.
