My perfect little boy

[LeosMama]

Just a wandering thought, and this seemed the best place to share it.

The human body is so fascinating, the detail and intricate refinement. A beautiful machine. When I see my boy's perfect body, his cute little baby tush, his sweet little rough knees (from crawling and falling and knee-walking on the carpet), his little webbed toes (inherited from dh), I am reminded again that he is perfect.

Dh was appalled when I was pregnant and suggested that dh's parents should have separated his toes "They're my toes, there's nothing wrong with them!", rather than removing his foreskin. I think he might be willing to trade the modifications, if he could. But he thinks it's ridiculous to separate webbed toes just because I think they're funny looking and unattractive.

I'm so proud that I made this beautiful little boy in my tummy, and that I had the good sense to not modify his body in any way, neither his funny webbed toes nor his perfect normal penis.

Isn't it funny? You would think making something that perfect would require practice...yet we manage on the first try.
I see you're working on another one...congratulations!

Are you married to my husband ? He has webbed toes, too and thinks they're a sign of great intelligence and would have never gottten them "fixed". We though for sure that DS would inherit them as they're a family trait but he didn't. I had scheduled the DNA test to check for parentage but since DS looks just like DH I think I'm safe, heh.

We both think DS's toes are perfect, too (even though they're not webbed, lol), just like his penis.

I have often thought this too. I can't understand how anyone can look at their beautiful baby boy bodies and feel that they can some how improve on it. It just looks right the way it is, and it is meant to look like that. It just boggles my mind that anyone feels the need to change them......

I think my baby looks perfect too. Just perfectly, beautifully formed.

LOL, so does my DH. Our son doesn't, though, I wondered if he was going to inherit that.

And I'll join the rest of you in celebrating how perfect our baby boys are just the way they are born.

While neither my DH nor my DS have webbed toes I know exactly how you feel. I marvel every day at how amazingly perfect my son is. I can't imagine thinking that a perfectly normal part of him was not attractive enough and needed to be modified.

That reminds me of what a woman said to me one time. She said her son was perfect before his circumcision and he was perfect afterwards. If he was perfect before his circ, why did you subject him to it???

Babies are born perfect. They don't need surgery to make them that way.

A rabbi once tried to coax me into condoning circ by telling me that girls are born perfect and that circ was a way to make boys perfect because they were born with "a flaw". I looked him in the eye and said "Please don't patronize me. I find your thinking ridiculous and manipulative." Then, I left because I had done everything I possibly could to protect the baby. After the bris, the mother said "I wish I'd listened to you." Aaaaarrrrrggggghhhhhh!!!!!

i look over to my 5 y/o daughter napping on the couch and still think that she is perfect (now when she cops an atitude with me, THAT is another matter, LOL LOL LOL) So the feeling of perfection doesn't fade. I love looking at my 9 y/o son and still think, "look at what i grew, and shaped and formed--and STILL get the privelidge to grow, shape and form into a grown man.

The only thing that i added or subtracted to their physical apperance was CLOTHES!
