10. Common Sense

Michael has a new book about snakes, lizards, and frogs.

We were reading it when we came across a frog where her babies live inside pouches on her back.
VERY disgusting and freakishly weird.

Anyway... as I am reading to Michael, I say, "Eww... this frog has babies living inside her back. That's disgusting."

Michael is puzzled, "Why is that disgusting? They're living in pouches."
My response is still, "It just looks icky and disgusting. Eww!"

(it really is disgustingly sick)

Michael then says, "But Mom, I lived in your tummy. Was that disgusting?"
Mom (thinking), 'uuuhhhhhh...'

THAT left me speechless. I certainly did not think of that, "Of course it wasn't disgusting."

Thank goodness he dropped the subject.
