I had a very interesting conversation today with a little girl who informed me she'll be 4 on February 11th. I was at work and I've seen her at my office before and she's always very sweet and seems to be very intelligent. Here's our conversation today.
She is staring, very obviously at my stomach while I'm asking her about her birthday and what kind of cake she wants.
Little girl: "What is in your stomach?"
Me: laughing, "A baby"
Her: "How did it get in there?"
Me: oh crap. "Well, God put her in there."
Her: "God is a Spirit, how did He put her in there?"
Me: still laughing, "He made you in your mom's belly and He made my baby in my belly."
Her: "How is the baby gonna get out?"
Me: oh crap again. "I'm going to go to the doctor and he's going to take her out."
Her: "I don't have a baby in my stomach."
Me: "No, maybe when you are a grown up God will put one in your stomach, too."
Her: "Oh, like when I'm grown up and married then I can have a baby."
Me: "yes, when you are married."
Her: "she's not a very big baby, how old is she?"
Too funny.. one question after the next and somehow I came up with answers to explain this to a 4 year old!
Moments like that make me soo soo excited to have a sweet funny little girl. LOVE IT!
That is too cute! I don't think I could've handled the situation any better. :)
