This is one of the conversations that took place in our car today:
Lizzie: "When Zach was little and said gaa gaa goo goo, did he walk down our long driveway?"
Me: "Yes, Lizzie."
Lizzie: "Did I walk with him?"
Jacob: "No, you weren't born yet. We were both in mommy's tummy still."
Lizzie: "Oooohhhhh, I was in mommy's tummy! You were in daddy's."
Jacob: "Daddy's don't have babies in their tummys. We were both in mommy's."
**Please note that at this point, Zach and I have made eye contact and are about one more word from exploding into laughter!**
Lizzie: "Oh. (Long drawn out pause) So, what do daddy's have in their tummies? Oh, I know...CATS!!!"
**At this point laughter erupts and Lizzie, knowing she has said something funny, continues to sing 'Daddies have cats in their tummies!"**
Jacob: "No Lizzie! (with utter disdain dripping from the words) Daddy's do NOT have anything in their tummies."
Lizzie: "Why not? Mommy, mommy , mommy, why not?"
Me: "Honey, that is just the way God made us."
Lizzie: "Oh yea, I get it. Mommy's have babies in their tummies and daddy's don't have anything. Not even kitty cats."
I promise this conversation really took place. How could I even make up this stuff? And lucky Brian was at work and missed the entire conversation.
