Good for my body parts

During cold and flu season, I am like an army general when it comes to fighting germs.  So when my 8 year old daughter was starting to show the signs of getting a cold, I don’t hold back.  At dinnertime, I reminded her to take her vitamin C.  When I was getting her chewable tablet out (her third of the day) she says to me, “Mom, are you sure these are good for my testicles?” My jaw dropped.  “Your what?” I said.  She innocently replies “My testicles.”  Chuckling it dawned on me what she was really talking about.  ”Honey, I think you mean… your tonsils.”  My slightly embarrassed daughter eeks out “Oh, yeah. That’s what I meant.” 

So much for being open and honest with body parts…
