Awkward Shower Moments

Troy has been requesting more and more showers over baths, which is fine with us because generally they’re quicker than a bath, and we can get a shower in too. However, I noticed that when he showers with me that he’s become more and more curious about my wee-wee. It could be because it’s at eye level for him or maybe he’s entering what psychologists call the “phallic stage” of development. But he asks me all kinds of questions about it, comparing it to his mother’s lack of a wee-wee, as he puts it.

I don’t mind the questions so much, but it does bother me when he unexpectedly flicks it while I’m washing my hair. I asked him not to do that, and he took the cup that I use to rinse off his hair and stuck it over it instead...equally unpleasant and awkward. I’ve had to start rinsing my hair with my eyes open, so I can see him coming.
