This made me laugh

This am
DGD we have to go to preschool

Darling daughter only if you want to. Do you want to go in there? Pointing at the preschool block

DGD, alarmed, we can't go in there

Darling daughter, don't you want to go?

DGD we can't go in the wall. We have to go in the door! The front door!

Darling daughter ah........

The tip

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_whale_penis

That's when they're...um...excited?

Not the whales and dolphins I've seen!

Overheard on whale watching trip in carribean
'How do you know it's a boy whale?'
Pause
'Hm ma'am, by his organ'

Great big one every time he rolled over playing with the boat!

Dolphins and whales are quite discreet about their parts.....

When asked what she was going to be when she grows up my middle granddaughter announced that she would quite like to be a giraffe. Her older sister wisely pointed out "that's just silly, you can't be a giraffe Gracey" "OKAY then" she said "I will be a horse instead"

If he wants to be a fantasy creature, presumably he can choose the gender. Do mer creatures have genitals and, if so, where do they keep them?

It'll need to be PC.. Big Brother will be watching.

As long as he doesn't have to be a 'merperson'...

That's so sweet - certainly more original than fireman, train driver, etc.

littleflo He will have to be a 'merman' I'm afraid.

Awww! And why not?
AKA Did you have long hair and a comb?

Brilliant ! I wonder what qualifications he will need

I wanted to be a mermaid too. I used to spend ages sitting in the sea in the hope I'd grow a tail.
