Conversation with a 5 Year Old
December 10th, 2007 Posted in Humor, Our Amazing KidsSometimes I think my brain shuts down and runs on automatic, at least when it comes to things that “I” say to my kids, usually in response to their myriad of questions. Here is a conversation I had last week with my 5 year old son after reading his bedtime story.
O: Where do people come from?
Me: They grow in their mommies bellys made from love from the mommy and the daddy.
O: But where do the mommies come from?
Me: They grow in THEIR mommy’s bellys.
O: Sighs. (not satisfied with the answers but moves on) Okay well, whaty’re these? Note that he’s lifted his PJ top and has each pointer finger on a nipple.
Me: Those are your nipples.
O: Whaty’re they for?
Me: They’re for decoration. lol.
He, of course, didn’t believe me but I’m still laughing at myself…lol.
