Colin has a new favorite story that he keeps asking for. It's right up there with the one in which he is a dog who goes flying on a green airplane.

Colin: Tell me the story about how I was just a little speck.
Me: Okay. When you first started, you were just a tiny little speck, and you were inside my body.
Colin: And I was in your tummy!
Me: You were in a special place inside my tummy called my uterus. And you got bigger and bigger, and my tummy got bigger and bigger until I was huuuuge (miming with hand motions). And then you came out and you were a baby! It was AWESOME!

That's the way we usually tell it. He likes to hear it over and over. But today he had an addendum.

Colin: And then what happened?
Me: Then you had some see-sees.
Colin: And THEN what happened?
Me: That was pretty much it.
Colin: And then I went back and turned into a little pig!
Me: You did?
Colin: Oink oink oink! I DID turn into a little pig!

...I guess he figured that if I could make up crazy, outlandish stuff, he could too.

Sensible child. Biology is ridiculous.

I just did a dramatic reading of this to my sweetie. AWESOME

I have been post-pregnant for nearly 17 months and my belief in the process has definitely faded!

Ok, I giggled out loud at this one. Rachel's current story request is the one where mom (me) got three baby cows as a child and raised them.

Hope you guys are doing well. I know you don't really know me, but I kinda miss hearing how the kids are doing. Figured I'd mention it so you know you're appreciated.

Having realised that reads like it could have come from any random spammer I'll point out I started reading your stuff via rasseff quite some time ago.
