E: Mom, who's the oldest?
Me: What do you mean?
E: In our family.
Me: Daddy. Daddy was born first. He grew in Grandma Diane's tummy. Isn't that silly?
E: How did he get in her tummy? (I seriously thought kids only asked that question in movies)
Me: Oh honey, Grandma Diane and Grandpa Mark were in love.....then Daddy was born. (Paused a moment, perfect parent avoidance tactic, answer a question with a question)
How do you think Daddy got in her tummy?
E: Mmmmm, they went swimming.
Me: They went swimming? (Trying not to laugh at this point) Well sort of. I'll tell you more when you're older.
