God, Babies, and Santa, oh my!
On the way home from Lamaze this evening:

Garrett: When you and daddy were little kids, was I a baby in the hospital?

Me: No, when daddy and I were kids, there was no Garrett and no Laura.

Garrett: Then where was I?

Me: With God.

Garrett: But how did I get to YOU?

Seth: Mommy and I made you.

*Insert furious elbowing and glaring from me to my clearly insane husband*

Me: God decided after daddy and I got married that we needed a baby boy named Garrett.

Garrett: But why did I have to be in your tummy?

Me: That's just the way it works.

Garrett: But why couldn't you just have asked SANTA to tell God that you wanted a baby?

Me: Hmmm. That certainly would have been handy.

Garrett: (getting frustrated with the whole conversation) But we can SEE SANTA. We can't SEEEEEEE God. GOD DOESN'T EVEN HAVE LEGS.

*Turn up the radio to listen to new Bon Jovi CD*

That is hilarious!!!!!! Why the hell didn't you just ask Santa???? Oh, if things were only that simple!

I can't believe that your husband said "me and mommy made you"!!! OMG, open up a huge can of worms why don't ya!

At least he didn't ask in a public place or at church or something like that. My cop out at school is "that's something you need to ask your family."

Oh shit! That's funny. I dread those conversations. Dread them. Mia, just last night, got on a "Why?" kick about the sun and why it has to go down everyday.
