What'd you expect me to say?

So, Liam's a little under the weather. I thought he felt warm tonight, so I talked Brad into pinning him down while I went at him with that horrible rectal thermometer.

As soon as the dirty deed was done and it was clear he did indeed have a fever, I tried to get at the nature of the illness by asking, "Liam, does something hurt?"

"Yes," he answered, with a whimper.

"What hurts, sweetheart?" I asked, in my most sympathetic mommy voice.

Still whimpering, he replied, "My butt."

Brad and I laughed so hard, eventually even Liam started to giggle.
