After Jammin's Proverbs, It was suggested to me that I should start a monthly series where I question my children and post their answers. I thought this sounded fun so immediately held an interview with the lovely, Buttercup.
Buttercup, are you excited about the baby coming?
Yes
Do you know where babies come from?
Yes, from Mamas tummies!
How do they get in there?
They just come into your tummy.
How?
It just came there to you and started growing on its own. I think God put it in there.
Can a baby get into your tummy?
No, because little girls don't have a big belly or boobies.
Does it take a daddy to help make a baby?
No, because daddy's don't have big boobies either. But, if you marry a daddy, then you can have a baby.
So when our baby comes what are you going to do?
Start picking up my bedroom.
Why?
It might eat my toys. Babies put everything in their mouths, especially toys.
Well, do you think its a good idea to start cleaning up your room now?
No
Why?
Cuz, Mommy....I'm talking to you.
Oh!
Stay tuned for future interviews with my wise children!
Watch out for those toy-eating babies! Gagh!
Hahahaha. That's precious. Thanks for sharing :)

She knows more than I did at that age. :) I like the theory on keeping her room neat, maybe you need a posse of babies. :)

Love it! Things are so easy and innocent at that age. If only they knew so they could enjoy it!

That kid. Cracks me UP!
(and I love the idea of the monthly question-asking thingy. Those kids sure do have a lot of funny stuff to say!)

Cute! I just love the way their minds work when they're little.

Very wise, very wise!!
Posted by: Arkansas Songbird | March 02, 2008 at 07:09 PM
Very cute! And a very good excuse too! I'll have to remember that one myself.

You're getting SMARTER! Having BC or Jammin' write for you once a month--you go, girl!
But her answers? Priceless! WHAT IF SHE HAD A DIFFERENT SET OF ANSWERS! Better yet, WHAT IF SHE STARTED ASKIN' QUESTION BEFORE YOU WERE READY TO ANSWER 'EM???
Keep this in mind: if she's still "too young" to hear anything detailed, when she asks "What's sex?" tell her "It's your gender, like whether you're male or female."
True story, it's what my older niece said to her younger sister when SHE asked (my sister was too shocked to answer quickly, ha!).
