Kiddo, my wife and I were talking about eyes at lunch (read: in a restaurant, in public) the other day.
Here’s how that conversation ended.
Me: "Did you know that your eyeballs won’t grow? Though your head and body will grow, You were born with
your eyeballs at full size already."
Mommy: (detecting some confusion on kiddo’s face) "Your eyes are sometimes also called your eyeballs."
Kiddo (loudly, after much thought): "Do you know whose balls I like? (Points at me) THIS GUY’S! Because
they’re green!"
Me: *facepalm*
Kiddo (quietly) "I don’t like mine because they’re blue."
I was as red as a beet! And the smiles I got from people at the tables around us didn’t exactly help either!
