Next to a little gang of ‘theorists’
“-Mom, where do babies come from?”
“Oh, holy heavens…” I think to myself.
The older one hasn’t asked this question yet… but the little one…
Sensing my silence, she adds details:
-“So… do they bring babies from a building?”
-“From the hospital,” I answer faster than fast.
-“Really?”
I nod—101% “yes.”
-“I always thought… from the church.
Because… well… why else would God pour water on them…
I thought you had to wash them after they were born…”
Sweet.

P.S. If I ever write a book, I think I already have a co-author.
