It’s Called A Boob. Now Take Your Finger Off My Nipple.

January 14, 2014 · 5 Comments

When it comes to explaining matters of the flesh to our children, my husband is infinitely more qualified than I. He is in the medical field, and it's not uncommon for him to read his anatomy books to them as bedtime stories.  Everything is all blah blah brain stem, blah blah uterus.  The way he explains things as he's answering their questions it sounds like he's teaching ...
