Maybe a Tums would help that problem

So I was reading Tertia last night and I clicked on her photo of that babies-filled belly and Tater looked up to see and here is the conversation that followed...

Tater:She gots a big belly!
Me:She has a baby in there. (twins, I know, but singular was easier here.)
Tater:A baby?
Me:Yes, a baby.
Pause for Tater thought.
Tater:Did she eat it?
Me:Lots of wise mommy explanation...

When I thought about it, I realized she hasn't been around anyone pregnant, except for me when she was quite young so she doesn't remember that. Out of the mouths of babes, indeed.

I love kids. But I don't look forward to the day when I have to explain how babies are made to my children.

Well it's as simple an explanation as there could be. Sounds believable to me! Far more believable than the truth, if you ask me!!

Hee!
What I remember most about telling my kids where babies come from was the look of shock and disgust on their faces... (sometimes I feel the same way)
