While I was putting sunblock on Squiddle's face and neck, just before his swimming lesson. Out of nowhere - we weren't even talking about boys and girls....
"I'm not a boy or a girl. I'm just Alessanda." (his pronunciation of "Alexander")
I applaud his nonchalance in regards to gender awareness and roles. I also can't argue with the wisdom of a three-year-old. And if later in life he determines that he (remains?) non-binary, I will support him.
But damn it's cute when three-year-olds say things like that.
baby baby,
