While I was at Walmart...

Michael asked me a question, "Mom, how DID that baby get in your tummy?" I have expected this from one of the older boys, but not my 3 1/2 year old! I told him that the baby was a gift from God, and that God had put the baby in my tummy. Thankfully, that was enough for him!

I think every mother dreads the day they are asked that question. I haven't heard of a child that doesn't accept that.

Imagine being an atheist and been asked that question. I really don't know what they would be able to say to one so young.

We have all been there a time or two. Wait until he wants a more detailed answer and in trying to give one in his terms, he asks if he can see!

When I was pregnant with one of mine, my little boy asked how the baby "got in there." I told him God put it there, and Daddy helped.

He said "next time can I help Daddy?"

Too funny!
