Naked Boy

My 5 year old loves to take his clothes off. I bet he’d sleep naked if I let him. He once said, “I want my whole body to be cool.”

This morning I woke up to the sound of his little brother saying, “Mama, he’s naked again.”

I laughed and said, “That’s okay. He can be naked in the house. It’s his house. As long as he doesn’t go outside naked it’s alright.”

“It’s my house?” he asked me while nibbling on his breakfast bar.

“Yes, it’s your house.”

“All of it?”

I laugh. “Yes, everything in it.”

He seemed to think for a second and after wiping the milk mustache from his toffee colored face he asked, “Then why are you here?”
