With perfect comedic timing today

Sophie had my PEERS kids laughing till tears rolled down their cheeks ---- boys included. She went with me to a short meeting and missed a step, falling on her butt. She immediately said quite clearly and loudly, "Ouch, I hurt my girl parts." and fell into a bean bag while holding said girl parts.

The kids started laughing and after they finally got themselves under control, she looks at them and quite simply said, "Girl parts." They started laughing again. Repeat this scene about 5 times and everyone was just about to roll out of their chairs.

I finally got myself under control enough from laughing at all these high school kids laughing at a 3 year old and I told her, "Enough, Sophie. Change the subject. NOW."

She looks at me. She looks at them. Silence is all around and then she peeks her head up over the bean bag and quite calmly said, "Penis."

I don't remember much after that. Thankfully, the bell rang, so she went to each kid and shook their hand, telling them, "Nice to meet you." And they all told her it was nice to meet her as well. I'm sure it was memorable for them.
