File this under Things You Should Never Answer “Yes” To: “Daddy, can you smell my hand?” [Shudder.] I’ve mentioned before that Sonny is fascinated with his penis. Once I found him sitting on the toilet with his finger folded into his foreskin, like he’d gotten stuck in one end of a pair of Chinese handcuffs. [...]
