Conversation With A 3-Year Old

This conversation was had while I was pushing the wee lad on a tire swing at the park.

Me: "Hey! You bonked my baby with the tire swing."

Boy: "Did you swallow your baby?"

Me: "No but it does look like I did, huh!"

Boy: "How did it get in there?"

Me: "Magic!" (It's always wierd to have this conversation with someone else's kid. You just never want to muddle in someone else's parenting approach!)

Boy: "How will you get the baby out?"

Me: "I'm going to push real hard."

Boy: *Giggle* "No!!"

Me: "OK, you tell me how I'm going to get the baby out then."

Boy: "You go to the hospital. They're going to make a boo boo in your stomach, then let some blood out, then the baby will come out, then they put a biiiiiiiiiig band-aid on it. But it won't hurt. Well.......it will hurt a little bit."

Is it just me or does it sound like this 3-year old has been taking C-Section Prep Classes at INOVA Alexandria?
