The Dreaded Questions of a 3 year old

I am in the kitchen making my husband an omelet after PT while he is doing the manly "3 S's" (all of those are done in the bathroom by the way). Then he screams out in an emergency manner "HOLLY". I did not drop everything and take off running, because I thought it was just that the twins were playing in the dog food and water. Then Jeff calls out again "HOLLY", I said "OK I am coming", so I walk back there and our 3 year old is sitting in the door way of the bathroom looking up at me with a dumbfounded look. Jeff says to me "look I need your help in explaining something to Ramie, she just asked me, and this is not the first time, about when we got married where was she? was she in your tummy? how did she get out?......I need help Holly these are things I can not talk to her about." So I said to Ramie "how do u think you got out of my tummy?" she said "I dunno" well I took her by the hand and said "come on baby I will show you how babies come out of mommies tummies". Jeff was screaming "no Holly don't do it you will scar her for life". I brought her in the living room sat down in the recliner put her in my lap got the laptop and pulled up child birth on You Tube. We watched a child birth she never said a word threw the whole thing! I was thinking to my self the whole time "OMG Jeff was right I have done it she is not only gonna be scared she is not even gonna want to play with her babies, she is never gonna look at pregnant women the same, what have I done!!
Then the movie was over......she looked up at me, she had kinda watery eyes.......and said ......"moma can we watch it again" I said "you wanna watch it again?" she said "yeah she had her legs up and was crying and going ooooo aaaaaa mmmmm uuuuuuu then a baby came out with blood on it"
We watched 3 more movies until finally I said "ok baby you get it now, thats how babies come out". 
I was so scared that I was going to scar her that I might have just made an OBGYN in the making LOL. I don't know. When she was little all you had to do was pretend that you were gagging and she was throw up, or Jeff could show her a loogie and she would puke. This is a child that can not wear turtle neck shirts! She will vomit! But for some reason is now fascinated with child birth. She even asked me "well what happen when they had to cut the boys out of you?" I said "hunny I don't think they have video's that show that".
It is so funny the things kids come up with and are interested in. Once again this is another reason why I started this blog. I wish I would have done this with Cecilia and Kamryn because I know they did stuff like this to I just don't remember them. I sure do look forward to many more with all the kids and now I have this blog to keep record and share with everyone.
