Conversations we have during carpool line...

Jake: Mommy, how did you know how to have babies.
Mommy: Well, God made Mommy special so that I could have babies. But I had to wait until I was a big girl to have them.
Jake: Oh, He left you a voicemail on how to have babies.
Mommy: No it was a text message.

2 minutes later...
Jake: Mommy how do they connect toilets to the water treatment facility? (Yes he knows about water treatment facilities thanks to Rob and The Discovery Channel.)
Mommy: Well, the toilets connect to little pipes that connect to big pipes that run under all the buildings and streets to the water treatment facility.
Jake: Oh, okay.

So after telling Rob about this conversation he runs out and buys a book called, "The Dangerous Book for Boys." Apparently it's everything a boy needs to learn how to do... build a fort, tie knots, make magnets, etc. Given that Mommy is the one having these conversations in the carpool line, I'm guessing I'd better get to reading... or turn on the Discovery Channel.
