Do You Know What a Willet Is?

I will be honest, I had no clue as to what a dictionary willet was. I actually just looked it up for the first time right now so that I could post the dictionary definition.

You see, to my sons, their 'private part' is their willet. How or why in the world do they call it a willet, you ask? Well, a few years ago, when they were in the tub, my one son just out of the blue called it a willet, and it has stuck ever since.

And with boys being boys, it is not uncommon to hear, 'oh my willet!' Everytime one of our boys says something about his willet, (especially in public), my husband always turns to me and says, 'I am so glad they don't know the real word!'

My husband and I laugh about it, and think of their shock someday when they find out the real name:) But as for right now, willet works just fine:)

And for thoes who want to know what the dictionary definition is......
