Eternal sunshine of my spotless mind

The other morning, on the way to school, my child asked me where babies come from. Or, rather he asked me how the baby gets out of the mommy. I am sort of for telling kids the truth, no stork stories here... I started to explain how there's a special place where babies come out from the mommy. He, being the ever-too-inquisitive child, continued to question about exactly where they come from so I finally said that they come from an opening that's between mommy's legs. So then he asks me "You mean, they come out of their butts?"

Needless to say, now my child knows the word "vagina." Although, I told him that it's not a word we say in school! And we never ask people about them... when I glanced in the rear view mirror, he looked totally confused.

I am glad to say, that after that morning, all questions about babies stopped. Phew!

My mood: enjoying my quiet weekend.
