Already?!

I know, I know.

“This is not a recipe. Where’s the recipe?!” I hear you ask.

The truth is we had leftovers for dinner, and I didn’t think you would appreciate the ‘Groundhog Day’ on that.

So, I thought I’d tell you about our trip to the library today.

Hold on tight!

Last year in school we were sent an email about a video the children were scheduled to see at night time, in their home, and it required parental permission in order to be sent the log in details.

It was called ‘Where Do I Come From?’

“Huh?” Liam and I thought?

Lincoln just turned 10.

The video was being shown to the 3/4 class. So 9-year-olds were there too!

I remember having the ‘Where Did I Come From’ talk in 6th grade, and so 4th grade seemed really early.

Liam & I were not ready for this, but felt out hand was forced, and so we sat him down and had ‘a chat’. 😬

For some reason today, I thought we should probably back that up with some literature in case there were additional questions.

As soon as I’d loaned the book from the library, I went into a bit of a panic.

What was I thinking?!

My primitive brain took over & I went straight to parenting 101.

Food!

I bought a family size box of hot chips and we went home and sat around the table.

Oh. My. Word, did we laugh!

Partly because I went super vintage with the material and loaned exactly the same book I was given which was first published in 1975! 😄😄😄

The illustrations are hilarious. The text also had us on the floor.

I won’t go into too much detail, but these pages got the biggest laughs.

I kept reading.

“What’s an erection?” Mila managed to get out, through big belly laughs.

I turned the page.

When we reached the page titled ‘masturbation’ I closed the book.

“Let’s take a break” I said pulling my escape chute.

“Yeh, I’m getting bored now.” Lincoln said.

“Let’s watch Teen Titans!” Mila said.

And just like that, my babies were back. 💗
