Personal Statue

My morning started by waking to the sound of Xen trying to climb up my bookcase over the dog crate.

"Mama? What is that statue? That is a really weird statue, mama."

To which I replied, "GET OUT OF MY ROOM AND GO WATCH TV."

"But I want to see the statue!" She protested.

"No. Get out." I insisted, wondering at what age children begin having permanent memories.

"Ugh!" She replied, and stomped out.

...
...

Not three minutes later, she stomped back in. "Mama. It's a penis, isn't it? It looks like a penis."

"THAT IS MY OWN PERSONAL PENIS STATUE NOW GET OUT OF MY ROOM!"

Damnit. This is going to be in her memory forever now, isn't it?
