Emily asks me some very arkward questions sometimes and i really have to put my brain in gear before i answer. She was asking me the other day how babies get out of mummys tummys... I didnt want to lie to her so i told her that they come out of your front bum... i waited for her horrified reaction "Wow mum thats clever how does that happen?" so i explained that girls/ladies are magic and it just stretches to make room for the baby to come out. She went back to colouring in like the matter was no big deal at all hehe.
Sometimes she catches me off guard by asking me things like "mum what does sarcastic mean?" its not something i had considered a difficult thing to explain till she asked me. I explained that if she was running around screaming at the top of her voice and i said "Could you be any louder!" i wouldnt actually be asking her to be louder, i would be being sarcastic Or if she slammed a door and i said "Is it shut?" i already know its shut i was being sarcastic because there was no ned to slam it.
She gave it some thought and responded "Like when you gave me ice-cream and i forgot to say thank you and you said "your welcome" thats sarcastic isnt it mummy?"
My little girl is so super clever and i love her to bits and pieces!
