The bit of humor in this is kind of disgusting, not toilet, but kind of sexual humor, about how kids say the darndest things. I got the idea from the stand up comedy of Caroline Rhea. It just sounded so much like something I could see Hawkeye's and BJ's daughters saying, so I had to put it in there. This type of thing is why this story is rated PG-13. I don't think it's R material, but use your own discretion. Everyone who's made it this far into my story knows it can get a little, you know, adult humorous, but no worse usually than what you'd see on Prime Time TV nowadays. Worse than M*A*S*H, but M*A*S*H is pretty tame by today's standards. I think that's why I like it so much, they never come out and say anything, but if you have a sick mind, like me, you see how they kind of hint around at everything. Well, enough of my ranting, read on!

Two years later, in August, BJ and Peg decided that Pierce and Erin were old enough that they could visit Hawkeye and Margaret. Having 3-year-old twins was a little more difficult than having a three year old and a five year old for traveling across the country. And August was the Crabapple Cove Lobster Festival.

Nick and Beth were both really good and easily entertained. Peg and Margaret had become very close friends in the week they had together. They sat in the kitchen one Saturday morning. Nick and Pierce were outside with BJ while Hawkeye was getting a shower. Erin was playing with her dolls and Beth was following her around. Erin was used to a boy that age, but not a girl, and loved every minute of it. Margaret and Peg felt it was safe to have her watch them in the family room, there wasn't anything they could get into there. The doors were closed and only Erin was tall enough to reach the doorknob.

Margaret sighed. "You have no idea how nice it is to be able to have coffee in the morning and relax. I know Erin can watch Beth for a while, and Beth idolizes her."

"Erin loves having a little girl around. Her brother doesn't like dolls which she's not happy about it."

"Yeah the twins sometimes kind of get sick of each other, you know? I guess they've always been together, for nine months in my stomach and all three years of their lives, and sometimes they just get on each other's nerves. They're pretty good, but sometimes I need to take Nick while Ben takes Beth and we do something separate. Ben usually takes Beth because she is such a Daddy's girl, and he loves it. Nick is more of a momma's boy."

"So what is it we're doing today?"

"Well today we figured we'd relax around here. Ben mentioned something about he and BJ taking Pierce and Nick for a ride in the boat, then maybe bringing them back so they can go fishing. Although I don't know how it will work with two three year old boys with two 35 year old men who act like 5 year old boys."

"I know, they sure can be immature sometimes."

"Yeah, although Ben is a great father. He's so caring, and he loves to play with them. And he thinks Beth is the prettiest thing ever, but I guess it's because he made her, and any dad is like that."

"Oh I know BJ is with Erin. I bet they have competitions, trying to see who has the prettiest daughter."

"Knowing them, they probably would. For as long as I knew the two of them, they were very competitive. I guess it's some testosterone thing, but they compare everything! I mean, they had a fight over who could tell this certain joke the best, and who's the better prankster."

"They compare everything?" Peg said suggestively with her eyebrow raised.

"Peg your mind is so far in the gutter. Though so is mine. I have no idea about everything, everything, although they did shower together, so I don't know if that came up or not."

"Makes you curious doesn't it?" Peg said laughing.

"That it does." Margaret was laughing too as her daughter came in looking very distressed.

"Mommy, Mommy!" Beth yelled and climbed into her mother's lap.

"What is it sweetie?"

"Mommy, I went to go to my pee, and Daddy was in the bathroom in the shower."

"Oh dear." Margaret said under her breathe dreading where this was going.

"Daddy has a tail!"

Margaret looked over at Peg and the two were trying so hard not to laugh. "Oh?" Margaret managed to get out.

"Yeah! Although not a tail like Tuttle's." She said pointing out to the Labrador that was playing with BJ and the boys. "It was on his front!"

"Oh, umm- well-"

Peg decided to interrupt. "Why don't you and Erin go outside and play with uncle BJ and your brothers?" She shouted out "Erin!"

Erin ran in. "Yes mommy?"

"Why don't you take Beth outside?"

"Okay."

"But Mommy, Daddy has a tail!" Beth said again. Margaret and Peg were both wondering what Erin would now say, since she knew what is was, because of her little brother.

"A tail?" Erin asked her.

"Yeah-huh, but it's on his front!"

"Oh, that. Don't worry Beth. You know what we got there?"

"Umm, yeah."

"Well all boys have a penis. That's what it's called. C'mon, let's go outside."

"Okay." Erin took Beth's hand and walked out of the house as if nothing had happened.

As soon as the girls were out of ear shot Peg and Margaret busted out laughing.

"Oh my God I think that is the funniest thing I've ever heard!"

"I know! I knew Erin would say something, she has no fear! When she was little I was changing Pierce's diaper, she was watching and asked what is was, so, I figured I should probably tell her. When BJ came home that day and asked her what she did today, she said she learned that all boys, him included have a penis. Then she asked if he knew that! He said, "well I'm a doctor so I had to learn that.""

"Oh my!" Margaret said trying to calm herself down.

"So, is it a big tail?"

"Peg!"

"Oh I'm just wondering if Mommy is lucky."

"Let's just say Mommy is very lucky." Margaret said laughing. "You know when I said how they competed with everything, that's got me wondering now. Is Erin's mommy lucky?"

"She is very lucky as well."

Just then Hawkeye walked in. "Hey, what's so funny?"

"Oh, nothing." Peg said trying to hold back another fit of laughter.

"Your daughter told me something interesting. She walked in the bathroom while you were in the shower. She thought you had a tail."

"Oh dear God." Hawkeye turned a deep red in the face and subconsciously tied his bathrobe a little tighter. "What, uh what did you tell her?"

"Well that's when Erin came in and told her what it really was, and that all boys have it."

"Oh, I see."

"And Peg asked me a question."

"Margaret!" Peg said.

"She asked if I was lucky."

"What did you tell her?"

"That I'm very lucky."

"Good."

"But apparently, she's very lucky too."

"Yeah so that got us thinking." Peg continued realizing what she was getting at to embarrass their husbands.

"Hey kids you ready to go? Erin, Pierce, Beth and Nick are outside playing with Tuttle. Hawk you're still in your bathrobe? Oh c'mon. What are you guys talking about, anyway?" BJ walked into the room.

"We were just about to ask which one of us is luckier." Margaret said.

"What do you mean?" BJ said.

"You know what we mean, honey." Peg looked at her husband.

"Wait, you mean? Oh you guys are sick! I mean, we don't know, do we?" BJ looked at Hawk.

"No way!"

"C'mon, you guys were in the showers together, you lived together sure, you must know!! You've had to seen!" Peg said.

"Maybe but we don't look!" BJ said very embarrassed.

Hawkeye decided to make Margaret a little embarrassed and get back at her a little. "Sure Peg, why don't you ask Margaret? She knows, she saw both of us."

"You saw my BJ naked?"

"Well, um, yeah I did, actually."

"Well?"

"I forget!"

"Well that's a pretty bad complement for Beej." Hawkeye said.

"Hey!" BJ yelled.

"Why did you see my BJ naked?"

"I played a trick on them. I stole their towels and bathrobes while they were in the shower."

"That's not fair! You've seen both of them."

The evilness in Peg and Margaret started to turn and they figured out how to get them really, very embarrassed. "Well, you know what we have to do to make this even, don't we?" Margaret said devilishly. Hawkeye looked at her. "C'mon Ben."

"C'mon what?"

"You know."

"Oh no way!"

"Well it is only fair, I mean I saw both of you, Peg's only seen her husband."

"Only?" BJ piped up.

"I guess you're an only, but everyone wants to see me." Hawkeye said with a smile. "Okay, this is way out of hand. I'm going to get dressed. If you really want to know, Peg I'm sure Margaret will remember from when she saw BJ naked." He jogged a little and got out of there as quick as possible.

"Darn I was sure it would work." Peg said laughing as the two nearly passed out in fits of laughter. BJ just shook his head as he went out of the door.
