Let me hear your body talk

Drake knows that he came out of my belly via C-section.  He knows that mommies of all kinds feed their babies milk from their bodies.  He was very concerned that milk does not come out of his nipples (or "niffles", as Flynn calls them).  He almost cried while wondering aloud, "But, if milk doesn't come out of my nipples, how will I feed my babies?"  I thought I had covered the basic biological differences between boys and girls.  He's been in attendance when I have been in the shower or going to the bathroom. Maybe he is just being nurturing. Or, he will invent a way for boys to feed babies with their own nipples.

Flynn is quite focused his own body.  He was very concerned the other day while sitting on the couch, naked.  He was stretching his penis up to his belly button.  "Mommy, why can't it go up to my head?"  How does one explain to a small boy that his penis isn't designed to stretch that far?  If it does, he is going to be very popular.
