Published Date: April 19th, 2007Category: Family Life, Marsha, The Babe, The Boss, The Big Guy, Funny Stuff
Over the lunch table…
M3: “How do we get babies in our belly?”
Mommy: OMG, “What do you mean?”
M3: “When we are grown up and want babies, how are they put in there?”
The Babe: Pointing to her belly, “Grow in your belly, naaassstty!”
Mommy: Blank stare and disbelief, “Well, when you get bigger and ….
M3: “I mean, when daddy loved you and you wanted K, how did his love make a baby grow?”
Mommy: Smiling at her pureness and seriousness, “Daddy and Mommy loved each other very much, so we were able to create a baby inside my belly to love for always, that was Kaelyn, you and then Ali.”
The Babe: Smiling at me and putting her arms out for a hug, “I looovvee you my mommy and my daaaaaaddddeee too!”
Mommy: Thinking I escaped, “So when you get to be older and find someone that you love like…”
M3: “Duh, I know that mommy, but what inside of you catches daddies love and forms a baby? Is it there from when we are little and grows later when we are big?”
Mommy: Oh, how I wish The Big Guy was here, “Mommies have eggs inside us that grow when we fall in love, like I did with daddy, and they grow bigger to become a baby. The eggs are so little you can’t see them and they are there our whole 
lives till we find that special love, like your daddy! That is when they are allowed to grow into a pretty little girl, like you and your sisters, or a boy like your cousins.”
M3: Looking at me like she wants to ask more, “Oh, that is good, my eggs will fall in love one day and make babies too. Hear that Ali, you have eggs that will be a baby!”
The Babe: Making a funny face, “Nassstttyyy!”
Isn’t parenting fun? Where the hell is the guide for this shit? Let me know how you think I did with my answers. Be kind, remember, my blood sugar is all out of wack. LOL!!!!

“When we are grown up and want babies, how are they put in there?”…
I think you handled that pretty good for now. Just be ready, the questions get harder as they grow up, and they won’t accept those answers anymore…LOL
I think you did a GREAT job, certainly better than my mom who, when I was in the 4th grade, simply left a bunch of pamphlets on my bed.
We’re still getting away with, “babies are made from love” bit!
LOL! You made a great good recovery there. I suspect we’re going to be in for this conversation soon and I think I’m going to go with your answer
We just had the Heaven & Hell conversation at our house. It really is amazing how much these little farts comprehend.
haha now wait until you make eggs for breakfast
