Excerpt from a conversation that occurred in my van today...Adam (almost 6 years old): Mommy, do you have to get married before you have a baby?
Mommy: Thinking to myself, do I give the long answer or the short answer, remembering that my almost 9 year old son is also present, listening intently to my answer and will likely extend this conversation into dangerous territory if it gets too interesting.
Yes.
(Not entirely true, I know, but it's something to strive for, dontcha think?!!)
Adam: How do people NOT have babies before they get married?
Mommy: Who wants to get ice cream?!!

A most excellent response!
Did it work??
I keep waiting for one of my kids to ask me something like that!
Honestly! I NEVER knew icecream could be used as a form of BIRTH CONTROL!!!
LOL! I think you handled this conversation very well! :)
