Now this will be a new LABEL for the blog for sure. Her questions are getting too involved and complicated to not mention them here in Necklac-Lee-world. So here it goes. Take 1
L's questions of the day:
L: Mama, how does my body know that I will have a baby?
M: BLANK STARE
L: Like do my legs just make the egg and then it turns into a baby?
M: (oh God ... how did we get here, we were talking about Santa just a second ago???)
M: Well your body has the egg and it needs a boy, like Papa, to make a baby out of it.
L: Right now?
M: NO! When you become a teenager your body will get ready to produce eggs that can actually turn into babies.
L: And how?
M: (frick ... how the heck did we get here??? I am so NOT prepared for this one!!!)
M: (with a gentle smile) So you have the egg and the boy will put his love into it and then a baby grows. But you need a boy for it first, and it has to be the RIGHT one!
L: I already have Jay and we'll get married.
M: We'll then we don't have to worry about that part anymore.
L: And then you get a baby.
M: Well, once you decide it's time you will. It's a BIG decision, you know! (trying to make a CLEAR point here)
L: BUT I DON'T WANT A BABY!!! I want two from the "Opanage" (Orphanage). What do I do now?
M: No worries, they have medicine that makes the eggs not hatch (so to speak).
L: I WANT IT!!! Can we get it now? I WANT IT!!!! PLEASE!!!
M: (WOW ... I am GOOD!!! That went better than I thought! Well done Mama ... padding myself on the shoulder :)
... and this is where babies come from ... for now at least!!!
