A Boat

The other night while driving home my kids started asking me questions about how i will deliver their little baby brother. I have explained before a few times the two ways a babies is born, naturally and by c-section. 

So when asked again how baby brother would come out, I said  hopefully naturally.

To this my 5 year old daughter replied, 

"Will he come out in a boat or will he just swim out?

HA! That is one of the best kid-lines I've heard. Send that to Reader's Digest or something. And also, when she is a mother, she will realize that it does FEEL like you are pushing out a boat, but you don't need to explain that part now.

God's blessings you and your little swimmer! I can't believe that it's getting so close.

too cute. kids have such an innocent understanding of everything.

i mirror jen's comment. both my children's heads were in the 95th percentile, so i can't think of a better metaphor than the boat image at this point.

praying for a canoe-like deliver, as opposed to a yacht-like delivery. :)

Hopefully swimming without a boat or floaties :>. So, so cute....you could write a book with all the cute things your little ones say. By the way, I'm dying to know the little guy's name....and still cheering for dark brown hair!!!
