Still Learning

9.23.11

I couldn’t tell you how our walk to the bus this morning led to a sex ed discussion.

There was a “do babies start out as small as this?” (fingers pinched to show a tiny size).

Yup.

“What do babies look like when they are that small?”

“Do they hatch from an egg inside the mom’s body?”

Well, sort of.

Ashlyn laughed “I have eggs inside my body?!?!”

Then, Drew piped in, “Did Lydia be born in a China belly?”

Yup. She was.

And, that was that. On the bus, off to kindergarten, no big deal.

And, I’m left wondering how I could possibly still need to answer that question. Oh my. At least it diffused the sex ed discussion.

Hello

I overthink everything. This blog is a prime example. Make yourself a cup of coffee and sit down for a read. Actually, make that a pot of coffee. There’s a lot of overthinking here.
