Yes children find the most inopportune moments to say unsettling things that only vaguely represent the actual conversation had. My daughter makes sure to embarrass me any chance she gets!
I would fold origami animals for my daughter while we were in line or waiting for a bus or whatever. Dragons, toads, rhinos, t-shirts, houses, whatever I could make with what I had, usually dollar bills.
One day in the middle of a crowded bus my 4 year old daughter asks, in a loud voice because it was a loud bus, "daddy can I have the cock?"
I am dumbfounded about what the hell she is talking about and think I must have missed hear her. So in my stupidity I say, "I couldn't hear you, what was that?"
She then proceeds to say MUVH LOUDER, "can I have the cock in your pocket, I want to play with the cock!"
The entire bus went silent... And I'm pretty sure I died, all I could do was say, "I have no idea what you are talking about." And that's when she says the paper bird. And that's when I remember I had made her an origami peacock while we were waiting.
I reached into my pocket, handed her the peacock, and had her say the word PEAcock, then I rang the bell and got us off that bus.
I took my son, 3 at the time, into the restroom at IHOP because he had to go. I had drank about 4 cups of coffee and needed to go as well. We went into the middle stall, as the ones on either side were already taken. He does his business and I lower my pants to do mine. He says in that 3 year old I-only-have-one-volume (REALLY LOUD) voice, "mama, why do girls have hairy front butts?" The women in the other two stalls were cackling. We washed our hands with super speed and paid and left. I was mortified.
