In the "Kids say the darndest things" category, I received a text last week from a young mother among us that made me laugh out loud. For context, you should know that O is two; her brother A is a couple of years older. Here's the text (only slightly redacted):
O: "You have a butt. I have a butt. Everyone has a butt."
Which evolved into O singing, "Nana has the biggest butt" to the tune of "Mary has a Little Lamb" (by way of the book Mary has a Great Big Dog).
She sang her butt song with love.
But the evolution continued. Authors O and A sang:
"O-O has a tiny butt, tiny butt, tiny butt.
O-O has a tiny butt.
The smallest bottom here.
"Mommy has a small butt, small butt, small butt.
Mommy has a small butt.
A bottom just like O.
"A-A has a medium butt, medium butt, medium butt.
A-A has a medium butt,
The most perfect bottom here.
"Nana has a great big butt, great big butt, great big butt.
Nana has a great big butt.
The softest bottom here."
