Welcome Mr. Detail!

Loveajax gave you some really good advice and the advice of a really good book to read.

Like Love we have never made it a secret to our son and we read many books to him.

Last week our son who is 4 1/2 decided to ask me out of the blue "how do babies get out of your mouth?" Okay so here I am trying to come up with something simple for a 4 year old to understand. So I begin the discussion but found I was not getting it right because his next question was "how do they get out of your feet?" So obviously I am doing really bad at how babies are born. But then he asked how he was born and it just fell into place and we had a simple conversation about his adoption and he asked a few questions and then he was like okay....thanks mom ...lol(his new favorite thing to call me...not mommy).

One thing about kids...keep it simple but they will come back to you later with more questions when they have time to think. He hasn't yet but I am ready when he has more. I do realize that we will have many more questions when he starts pre-school next week and very much more when he starts Kindergarten next fall. I am ready and I know that you will do just great with talking to your daughter.

Good luck!

Sincerely,
Michelle
