The Memory of an Elephant (again we are back to the Apple Tree)
I don't know if I have ever mentioned this but I have a fantastic memory. I remember the most ridiculous things from my childhood, adolescent, and early teen years. Late teens and on are a bit hazy for reasons I am not permitted to say. Anyway, I must have passed this gene on to my son, who remembers everything! Tonight's anecdote just needed to be shared. As I am bathing him I used my daughter soap to wash his shoulders and face. Now, mind you while I was pregnant with him, this article surfaced and he has never been touched with a lavender or tea tree product. Anyway, last year when my friend had a son, she asked me if I wanted all of her leftover Johnson's Bedtime Bath that she hadn't used with her daughter. I asked her, "Why, don't you want B@$*% to have boobs?" She laughed, and yes she had heard the same thing. Anyway, now a year later, while I am bathing my own son and used the J&J Bath by accident, I exclaimed, 'Oh! I used your sister's babywash on you!' He replied, "Mom! Now I am going to have boobies!" I think there are 2 reasons for this, 1. He overheard my friend and I talking about it last year, and 2. His father probably tells him he can't wash him with it b/c he will grow breasts. So that's my little anecdote, I hope you enjoyed it! I haven't done any recent research about the boy boob theory, but feel free to do so and follow up with a comment! TTFN!!
