Birds and Bees

A while back, while eating in a restaurant, the waitress was joking around with our family and asked, “Where did you get all these good looking kids?”  Quite promptly, before an adult could respond, Graham answered, “We were all eggs!”

The waitress looked at Eric and I, and we were about as shocked as she was!  No, we hadn’t shared anything about the ‘birds and the bees’ with Graham … he’s only FIVE.

So, yesterday, he had occasion to share more with me…

He came up to me, out of the blue, while I was sitting at my desk and announced, “Remember when we were walking on your back and your back cracked?  Remember that, Mom?  Well, that was eggs.  That was Louis.  That was an egg cracking.”

I tell ya, this kid’s mind doesn’t stop.

I have asked the kids to stand on my back – only a couple times – when I was really in pain.  It’s not the best method, but sometimes provides relief.  I won’t be able to do that again without laughing mightily!
