When I was a toddler I used to think my mouth was my eyes

And every time I would close my mouth I'd be confused over why I can still see. It took some time of experimenting with closing and opening my mouth to realize I wasn't seeing from my mouth.

Did you constantly keep your mouth wide open so that you see?

I think I just assumed my mouth was always open when I was seeing :/

Did anyone else face this confusion?

No, but up until I was 8 I had trouble pronouncing the 'ou' sound in words like 'found' and 'house'.
So instead I would say "farnd" and "harse".

I find this adorable. I love that you remember it, too.

My kids must've gotten sick of "heads, shoulders, knees and toes" after about a thousand times each in our Gymboree classes. I know it drove me nuts, but they by God knew their body parts.
