Evy and I were having a refresher on what she should do if someone she doesn't know approaches her while she's playing in the yard.
Me: "What do you do if a lady in a car pulls up and asks you if you want to pet her orange kitty?"
Evy: Blank Stare
Me: "You say NO! and run back into the house, right?"
Evy: "But, Mom. Should I say No, thanks?"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
I was putting laundry away, minding my own business, when out of the blue the following conversation occured.
Evy: "Who makes humans?"
Me: "You know that babies are in tummies, right?"
Evy: "Yes, but who makes the bones?"
Me: Long pause. Ask self how to answer this one. Decide on truth. Take deep breath. "Well, some people believe that God created humans."
Evy: "So God created the earth, the trees, and bones?"
Me: "Some people believe it was God and other people believe in a thing called Evolution where they think humans came from monkeys" (I know I should have probably used Chimps or Gorillas here but give me a break I was under a lot of pressure)
Evy: "Monkey's!?!?!??!" Followed by hysterical laughter.
