Explaining the Bulge at the Crotch Area to a 3-Year Old
I was at KuKunehNeh’s (KKNN) place and was playing with her 3-year old niece called Ashlee. Ashlee has a little difficulty pronouncing my name and usually ends up calling me,
“Uncle TWISSSSSSSS!“
She is really cute and sometimes love to run into my crotch area, head first. Apart from these OUCH! moments and other weird things that kids like to do, one of the things she loves to do is to play with Microsoft Word on KKNN’s PC.
“Uncle TWISSSSSSSS! I want to play ABC!”
KKNN’s PC takes about 20 decades or so to start up and I sat on the chair and entertained Ashlee before the PC completely boots. I was wearing beach berms and much like jeans, beach berms are made of this thick material that has this unsightly fold around the crotch area especially when one is sitting down in it.
Ashlee saw the fold and she looked at me with doe eyes and asked curiously,
“What’s that?”
Before I could react, she moved swiftly and used one of her small hands to squeeze the tip of the fold.
“What’s that?” She asked with a more insistent tone and wearing a slight grin of a child who has found something interesting.
She rushed forward to squeeze the bulge again and I managed to lift her away before she decides to hammer the area with her fists or something.
“Uncle TWISSS! What’s that?”
It may be just the fold of my berms but I knew that she has probably caught on that boys have something that girls don’t have in that area and she wanted me to tell her what that ‘area’ contains.
“It’s just my shorts Ashlee. Er…. OH LOOK! The computer is on!”
It’s a good thing that kids at that age have short attention spans.
