Why I've never had male dogs

So, Max seems to be settling in to his new surroundings. He's still very skittish but chilling out a bit. I'm afraid I'm creating a monster because every time we leave from up there (Tracy's parent's house) he starts this puppy bark/yap/whine at us as we drive away. He really enjoys playing with Gracie and the kids. He's discovered that he likes the brightly colored spherical objects that we call, "Max, ball!" He runs for them and slides across the garage floor or the grass, whatever he may be on at the time!

Just before Nanny and Granddaddy got home from their outing to supper, we had a funny conversation. Max actually sat down on the porch and seemed to be resting and happy. He's usually panting and nervous, unable to get comfortable and content to stand. But he was sitting and facing Madison. She said, yes, you're thinking it, "Mom, what's that pointy thing?" I said, "What pointy thing? Where?" Like I had no idea what she was talking about!! ;) She said, "Down there by his tummy, that pink pointy thing." All matter-of-factly Mr.Mason pipes up and says, "That's his penis. Yep. Like your vagina. That's his penis." She starts laughing and says, "penis.?. how do you know Mason?" And I couldn't contain myself any longer, the smile was cracking and I busted out laughing as she said, "Mom, is he right? is that his penis?" I just said, "yeah, that's what it is. " So Mason says, " I just know because here's my penis and that's his." Thank God he just grabbed his shorts and didn't feel the need for a real comparison! A few minutes later she's down there looking up under him muttering "penis" sounding like Beavis and Butthead. I ran her off and told her it had gone back in-all gone now!

They're crazy I'm telling you! Or I am- Or they're driving me there!! :) I'm still laughing about it as I type this!

Boys have a penis. Girls have a vagina.
