great conversation, everyone!
Actually, at age 6 what I think was going on was an exploration of how he could or could not control "reality"
'cause I do think it's all about our *interaction* with said "reality"
Funny story about convertibles and body parts *ahem* when he was 3.5. He had just decided to be done with diapers, saw a car go by and asked "mom, a convertible is something that changes, right?" "Yep" said I. "Mom! my *ahem* is a convertible!" and I had to agree with him even as I tried not to drive off the road in a laughing fit.
