Some random stories

***One night I went downstairs to get Lexi's clothes ready for school the next day and gymnastics. I was moving some things on her bed, and noticed a giant wet spot so naturally I sniffed it. It was pee. 

So I call the kids downstairs because everybody plays in there and I said, "Who peed on Lexi's bed?" Luke slowly rose his hand up. I sent everybody out except for him and I asked him when did this happen and he said, "It happened today when I was getting dressed."  I said, "Why did you come down here and pee on her bed?" And he said, "I didn't come down here, I peed through the vent." 

I don't want to be mad at my kids when they tell me the truth, so I took a deep breath and told him I was very upset with him and he needed to just go to bed. So he went up to bed. The next morning I asked him why he did that and he said, "Because Mom. My weenie just gave up."  Confused I said, "Just gave up? Do you mean you had to pee so bad that you couldn't hold it." And he said, "I was naked, so I couldn't go to the bathroom." Can you tell that we had been talking about keeping our privates private? 

I told him that if he has to pee so bad it's okay to just cover his privates with his hand and run to the bathroom. It's not okay to pee in the vent. And he said, "Oh, okay Mom."

***Driving home from the store one morning out of nowhere Lexi says, "Hmmmm.  It looks like it's going to be partly cloudy today."  So matter of factly!  I looked at her in the rear-view mirror & said, "What?!"  She said, with plenty of sass, "Do you even know what that means mom?"  "I think it means there will be some clouds today and some sun."  I replied.  She seemed impressed and nodded, "Yep!  That's what it means!"  Apparently they have a weather chart in Kindergarten that they update each day.  My cute and sassy future meteorologist.

***Taylor and Rylee have been watching Fuller house on Netflix. And there's an episode where Kimmy Gibbler is having a baby. So they started asking a lot more questions about how does it come out of the stomach because I have told them that the doctor just will make a little cut and pull them out. But I figured they were old enough to know the other way babies can come out. I would rather my kids know that they can come to me and I can tell them how things are and not have to find out from other people. 

So I told them that babies come out of vaginas. Rylee said, "What are you? Chinese?" I know I've told them about the word vagina before, but obviously she had forgotten. So I told her how our body just knows what to do and babies come out of that and then it just goes back to normal. She was completely fine with it. 

Taylor on the other hand was completely disgusted. Not for the fact that it was going to probably happen to her one day, but that she had came out of mine. Her face was had a look of complete disgust. All she wanted to do was go take a shower because she thought it was the grossest thing ever.
