Anatomy Lesson :)
So this morning we were lying in bed with all of the kids and Carson was being silly and climbing all over and Hailey very sweetly said "Carson has a piggy tail on his bum, doesn't he?" It took me a minute to register what she had said and then I realized what she was talking about. I couldn't help but chuckle a little. Now I know you are thinking she should probably know these terms by now, but I kind of feel that when she is ready or shows signs of curiosity that I would then take the opportunity to address it then. I mean she definitely knows that there is a difference between boys and girls, but when changing Carson's diaper she has never said anything to the effect of "what's that mom?" or anything, so I just figured she wasn't ready. So this morning after this comment I felt that she was mature enough to handle the more mature terms, if you catch my drift. So I took her aside by herself and explained what the real deal is! She was very sweet about the whole thing. Anyways, just thought it was cute story that I thought I would share!

That was so cute!!!!! You gotta love those moments.
That's so funny! I don't know if you ready about Sennika learning to say "bum..." and then that everybody has a bum...it's hard to know how to approach such subjects, but they will be glad that you didn't just ignore their questions & act like we're all the same! :)
