Innocence






When T was in First Grade we were driving home from school.  He was sitting, all buckled up, in the back seat and the following conversation took place:

T - "Mommy, how did I get into your tummy?"

Frantically thinking back to the last parenting book - don't go into detail, keep it simple.

Me - "Well T remember how at school you planted a seed and the Radish plant grew?"

T - "Yes"

Me - "Well your Daddy planted a seed inside Mommy's tummy and you grew"

Silence for a few minutes and then:

T - "Mommy, did Daddy use a shovel?"
