Mom, what does virgin mean?
The holidays are always a great time for these “life lessons.”
It means untouched. And we will leave that there… best to be precise if not too illuminating :-)
Sigh, The words are changing faster than I can look them up.
Maybe your grandkids will buy you a dictionary app as a special treat!
“Daddy why is it called a penis? It is stupid…. ”
“They build the pyramids how long ago? Oh, and was that when you where a little kid…”
“Mom, why are your boobs bigger then those of X’s mom?” (this one was asked while waiting at the butcher’s)
So funny! I swear that our most awkward conversations always happen in a grocery store aisle! What gives??
Always at the grocery store! But that usually buys me enough time that they forget to ask when we get home.
“Wait, is it the London Blitz? Or the London Blintz?” That will never be topped, as far as I’m concerned. I picture London blanketed with delicious rolled crepes during WW2. How different things might have been.
Ha! That is awesome.
“Mom, What does procreate mean?”
I love it when you can redirect the conversation though… “If pro means ‘in support of’ what do you think procreate means?” Stalling tactics!
These are so cute. Why can I not think of one single one? My kids are, by no means, mute.
