Are you a little boy? Do you
love your mommy? Do you want to make her everyday experiences more enriching
while you help propel her growth and development? Well, I am here to help. I’m
Matthew, I’m four years old, and I have dedicated my life to improving my
mommy. Now I’d like to help you help your mommy. Are you ready? Let’s go!
Before we get started on all the
ways you can help your mommy throughout the day, you have to understand one
thing: Mommies have a weird and mysterious body part that you don’t have. It’s
called a “vagina.” Mommies like to be frequently reminded of this physical
abnormality, so tell or ask them about it incessantly. Also, mommies like using
cute little terms of endearment like “Honey Bunny” and “Sweetpea.” Use your
knowledge of your mommy’s strange anatomy to come up with a cute little term of
endearment for her. I like to call my mommy “Vagina Person.” She loves this
special little joke that only we share (well, us and everyone at Target after
that one day). Take a moment now and think of your mommy’s new special
nickname….
Are you done? Great! Now let’s
talk about all the learning opportunities your mommy has throughout her day.
Don’t forget to throw in your special nickname for her as you go!
Mommies LOVE coffee! |
Your mommy wakes up in the
morning needing a little mental and physical stimulation. Help her out. I like
to use music to ease my mommy into her day. Choose your favorite song and sing
it repeatedly as you dance around her while she tries to drink hot coffee.
Mommies appreciate loud volume at this time to help them become more alert and
awake. If you really want your mommy
to wake up and face the day, substitute one or more words of your song with
your favorite potty words. One of my favorites goes like this: “Old McPoopy had
a poop. Poop poop poop poop VAGINA!”
Lots of days, after breakfast
mommy has to do errands like grocery shopping. If you get to go with her, you
have an amazing opportunity to enrich her day and stimulate her senses. First
of all, and as always, remember your potty words. I’ll never forget the look on
my sweet Vagina Person’s face when I declared in a crowded checkout line, “It
smells like a PENIS in here!” Her bright red face and stammering voice were a
sure sign of brain cells growing and synapses being formed.
Mommies love grocery shopping! |
Mommy is busy at the grocery
store, so this is not the best time to ask her questions directly. Instead, ask
the other grocery store patrons your questions. Let mommy learn from their
responses when you ask that lady, “Why are you so fat?” or that man in the wheelchair,
“Why don’t your legs work? Did your big fat Vagina Person sit on them?”
When you get home from the
grocery store, it will probably be time for lunch. Lunch should always be eaten
naked or, if that’s not possible, wearing just underpants. Did you know that
underpants have a little hole in the front so you can check that your penis is
still there? It’s important to check—you just never know. Mommy thinks
lunchtime is a great time for me to check my penis, so I try to do it often
while I eat. I aim to please, after all.
Speaking of aim, keep mommy’s
brain working hard by declaring a potty “emergency” just as she sits down to
eat. This makes my mommy nervous and excited, as she knows that every trip to
the potty for me is another opportunity for her to practice her cleaning
skills. See, Vagina Person says it’s important to get all the pee in the
toilet, but I say it’s important to see if you can hit that little fly on the
wall. She likes to play little games with me like “Float a Cheerio in the Toilet
and Hit it With Pee,” but somehow it always turns into “Hit the Fly on the Wall
With Pee.” She may act mad, but she needs these learning experiences to grow
and develop. Keep it up!
Mommies love facebook! |
After lunch, my Vagina Person
likes us all to have what she calls “Quiet Time.” She used to call it “Nap
Time,” but my little brother Poopy Stinky Butt and I had a meeting and decided
that watching an hour of TV is much preferable to sleeping. Sometimes during
Quiet Time your mommy won’t have enough to do. You’ll know this is true if you
see her on the phone or sitting in front of the computer. Your mommy needs to
be stimulated if she’s going to grow, so don’t allow this idleness. I like this
mental challenge in particular: Start crying for no reason. When your mommy
asks you what’s wrong, cry harder. When she asks again, scream, “YOU KNOW WHAT,
YOU STINKY HEAD!!!” It may result in a time-out, but it’s worth it. We’re
helping here, right?
Remember, mommies don’t like to
be alone. Their least favorite parts of the day are when they have to go to the
bathroom or take a shower. Don’t let them be sad and lonely. Find a way to be
with them during these troubled times. If you can’t actually physically join
her in the bathroom (um, what happened to the whole we-don’t-lock-the-bathroom-door-young-man
thing?), find a way to lure her out. The quickest and easiest way to do this is
through Little Brother Torture. Poopy Stinky Butt’s screams of distress always
bring my Vagina Person running, dripping wet and naked, to the rescue. Be sure to
laugh and scream “NIPPLES!” at these times. Again, red face and stammering
voice = growth and development. And that’s a good thing!
Finally, since poor mommy
doesn’t have a penis like everyone else in the family, try to share yours with
her. Pull it out at unexpected times (again, Target is good) and scream
“PENIS!!” so she knows it’s out. I also like to put my mommy’s little things in
my underpants then run around the house screaming, “Your Chapstik is touching
my penis!!!” This has the added benefit of giving your mommy the physical
exercise that facebook and Twitter just don’t provide as she chases you around
the house.
So, there you have it. As you
can see, it’s easy to use your everyday daily activities to stimulate and
enrich your mommy’s brain, body, and senses. Next week we’ll discuss sleeping
and bedtime with a post called “How to Make Sure Your Mommy Doesn’t Get Too
Much Sleep.” Until then, keep your volume up and your penis out!
