I certainly didn't encourage it. I never learned how to burp. I'm a lady don't you know? I'll bet Lea doesn't do that either. I enjoyed the story anyway. gmj I raised 5 girls and 2 boys and I had a couple of girls who could out burp any boy. I certainly didn’t encourage it. I never learned how to burp.

After a couple of references to last night's lasagna creating a funny feeling in our preacher's stomach during the sermon, a little toddler boy let out a huge belch after the conclusion and before the song. You could hear everyone whispering "There's last night's lasagna" and the whole crowd giggled. We may not remember the sermon, but we'll remember the belch.<br/><br/>dil OK, I wasn’t going to share this but I just have to.

I am sure he would enjoy his meal more if he were in the presence of other boys doing the same thing. At least he wouldn't have to be the only one on the receiving end of all of those comments. It is interesting that from a young age, the girls mastered table manners without us even having to teach them. <br/><br/>Cute story and I am glad Josh is in the norm.<br/><br/>dil Can Josh come eat with you guys?

I kept an eye out for you even. Glad you got to go. It was our first, but will definately not be our last. Thanks for sharing the story. The only one not dainty, I'm ashamed to say, in my family....is me. <br/>Have a great week.<br/>Lance Dickerson Trey,

Of course, girls don't make those noises but we can still give ratings! I grew up around boys mostly so… we rate the body noises on a scale of 1 – 10.

I will teach my son this "gem" some day, too. Unfortunately, my sisters-in-law (both in their 20s) really break up my chivalry argument some times. They can definately best me when it comes to bodily noises. Oh well - maybe I can at least teach Noah not to do it on his first date or in front of his future in-laws someday.

It isn't any better with girls. Ask my parents, Emily & I can probably compete with any boy on the belching contests (maybe because we were raised with all my dad's basketball teams.) I think Cooper's response was quite humerous, but definitely not what Lea was lookig for. I agree with most of the others. It isn’t any better with girls.

Four women, and just him representing the male half of our species. We even had to only get male pets because he said he didn't want to be any more outnumbered than he already was. They eventually adopted my little brother, but the damage was done.<br/><br/>Now it seems I am doomed to raise my munchkin in a sea of testosterone. There's been one girl born into my husband's family in the last 50 years. And everyone has 3 or 4 kids. Darn paybacks. :) Thanks for the warning.

I hoping maybe one day it will be reversed. I fully expected to be dealing with the boys on the belching and farting but it is sweet little ole Maude.

When my son was 2, I would say "Good boy" as a joke everytime he belched. That would soon end until about a year and half later when he belched in front of his mom and she asked him what he should say, he said proudly, "Good Boy." Mean while, his 2 year old sister was laughing her little head off and looking at her brother as if he king of the world. Sorry, Lea, I can only imagine what strength it must take to handle "men thing" like that!<br/><br/>Steve in AZ Trey,

Somewhere in the mix some of the kids got into a belching contest and the winner was one of the sweetest girls in the youth group. Who would have known? Great story, Trey! You have a one in a million wife with Lea. One day it will all finally click with those boys. One day...
