Birds & Bees

THE birds & the bees for a matter of fact. So, earlier tonight when I was saying goodnight to Mekhi he asked when we were having another baby. I said I wasn't sure. He kept prodding so I said that daddy and I would discuss it. His reply? "Does daddy have to have something to do with having a baby?" :D Okay. So, all my classes I've taken where this topic has come up have stressed that we should talk frankly with our children starting at an early age about sex. He was asking some seriously specific questions and I answered. The looks crossing his face were absolutely priceless! I wish I had the whole thing on video. LOL. At one point he asked, "but HOW does it get there?" in reference to the sperm reaching the egg. Yeah. I pretty much told him and then said how it's special and God made it work that way so you can make babies when you are sealed in the temple. His reply? "But HOW? If you don't tell me how will I know what to do when I'm married?" Seriously!! I said daddy would tell him when that time comes, but he wasn't having it. I got him onto puberty at this point. He was intrigued by the way. So his ending comments were to earnestly remind me that I needed to eat a lot of bananas to have a boy, but not too many because then I'd have a boy that looked like a banana. Hehe. Can't stop laughing! And no idea where he got the banana thing!

Maybe I don't really need to worry since he still insists that he doesn't understand why anyone would have to move out when they are older and that he is staying in our house with us FOREVER!!! To which Robert always quickly says "yeah right buddy, I don't think so." ;)
