A's Anatomy
Every day we have been making fruit and veggie smoothies in our Vita-Mix.  Last night I was relaxing in the recliner with a pineapple smoothie that hubby made and A came and sat with me.  4 yos are wiggle worms so she couldn't get situated at first and kept pressing her elbow into my chest.  Finally I told her to sit still and quit poking my chest.  So, A, who is in major question mode about everything at the moment, says, "Why do you have a chest?"  I always speak frankly (but age appropriate) with my children about these things.  So, I told her, "God made women that way so that when they have babies they can feed them milk.  When you and J were babies, that's where you drank milk and if you get to be a Mommy when you are a lady, you can feed your baby too."  She thinks a moment and says, "I'm already a YOUNG lady!" (Echoes of my own voice saying, "Young lady, start picking up right now!" go through my head.  LOL)  She sat there thinking a moment and then said, "Yep.  That's where babies get their milk and smoothies!" I laughed so hard I thought I was going to pee my pants.  Hubby too!  Nursing twins, you do tend to feel like a moo cow at times, but I never new I was dispensing smoothies too! :o)

When my husband was little - his brother was a nursling, so I'm guessing less than 3 yrs old - he had it all figured out! One side was milk...the other was chocolate milk! ;-)
