The Booby Boy
by Melanie VanDerveer

I have a funny story about my 3 year old son. 

I was nursing my 10 month old son in my bed, trying to get him to nap, and my 3 yr old was laying next to us on my bed watching TV. 

Jesse, (the 10 month old) just wasn't in the mood to take a nap so he was very fidgety and kept sitting up and laughing. 

So my 3 year old wanted to help me out with him. 

JD, (3 year old) thought that he should help me out by taking his turn nursing. 

Not JD nursing, but him nursing Jesse. 

JD pulled his shirt up to his neck, grabbed Jesse and pushed his face into his chest and said to me "mommy, it is my turn to feed the baby so you can rest now". 

Wow...I don't think I have laughed that hard in a long time. 

Everyone involved laughed so loud that my other 2 children came running in to see what all the fun was about!!! 

Now, JD calls Jesse the "booby boy" and sometimes gives him the naked Barbie doll to nurse from. 

He thinks he is helping...LOL!!!!
