Are You Kidding Me!

You know how as parents you have this idea in your head about how things are going to be. You make a plan and invision it unfolding that way. Well...I did not EVER imagine having to have "the talk" with my SEVEN YEAR OLDS! The twins were born via c-section, so I used the easy way out. I told them that they were cut out of my belly. They were happy with that. Well, a couple of months ago they came home from primary and informed me that babies can come out another way, in which they tried to discuss in primary but their teacher (a male) said they needed to talk to us (he's the last bishop of the ward, SUPER awesome!) Somehow the boys forgot about it the minute their bellies took over, and as boys do, would rather eat than anything. However, there has been a constant stream of questions since. Finally, yesterday in Costco as I was buying feminine products, it came to a head. Carter would not be brushed off with generic answers anymore and demanded to know everything! So, we had the whole baby and girl part boy part lesson. I told Chet to prepare, because he gets the condom talk! I know it's coming soon! There should be some clause that says if you don't have any girls, you shouldn't have to have the talk, your husband should. I am just glad they want to talk to me, so I won't complain! Being a mother...wow!!!
