Mommy dodges a bullet

The following conversation occurred in our carport yesterday evening...

Henry:  Where are you going, Mommy?

Me:  I have a baby shower to go to.

Henry:  What's a baby shower?

Me:  It is a party for someone who is going to have a baby.

Henry:  Is it for Miss Angie?

Me:  No, Miss Melissa.

Henry:  Oh, okay.  (has now lost interest)

Ceci:  Where do you buy babies?

Me:  You don't buy them, God puts them in your belly.

Ceci: Oh.

Henry:  Yeah, you eat a lot of food, and then there is a baby in your belly.

Me:  Not exactly.  When you grow up and get married, God will put a baby in your belly.

Ceci:  Where does it come out?

Me: (sweating) Where does it come out?  Ummm...

Henry:  The hospital!

Me:  Yes!  The hospital. (whew)

LOL. Logan told Gavin that "you push it out like poo-poo". That answer will suffice for now.

You are proof that one does not need pictures to have an entertaining blog.
