Amazing body parts

This post is dedicated to the human reproductive system described by my four year old son, Adonai. He recently read the book "Amazing you" and his brain flooded with information about his body that he is delighted to share with me and the whole wide world.  My husband had to smile through a "hey daddy! you have testicles and it makes a lot of sperm, right?" moment in the middle of WALMART while shopping on a Saturday evening. It is hilarious hearing him speak so nonchalantly about his body parts especially when so many people (...even us adults!) cringe at the sound of each part's actual name.


This is a typical conversation during our days right now:

Addi: So mom, you have two ovaries & you have a lot of eggs, right? And daddy has testicles and a lot of sperm, RIGHT? ...and when the egg meets the sperm, Me and Zali was born...RIGHT MOM? And then your tummy squeezed me out because I was getting too big and I had a penis & Zali had a vagina...RIGHT MOM? 
I have a testicle & a scrotum! and I have a urethra and I urinate... and I have a penis, RIGHT MOM?!?
