Out of the Mouths of Babes

If you are lucky to spend time regularly with kids, then you know that they often come out with some real verbal crackers. On our way to the airport yesterday we shared the bus ride with friends of ours from school, Cath and Jeff (from Melbourne) who are around the same age as Jenene and I. Harper was asking why they don't have any kids, and Jenene was explaining that they just haven't decided to have any kids yet. Harper then replied, "But are they married?" Jenene explained that they were married, causing Harper to go into deep thought for a few moments before asking, "So how do they keep the babies in?" I can see that the father - son birds and bees talk may be just around the corner, prompting questions like, "But the bee is so small, and the bird is so big, so how does the ........" I guess we'll just have to cross that bridge when we come to it.
