How much does she know?

Edited below.

Conversation in bed this morning:

Peter: Mama, I want a baby brother.

Me: No, mama's getting too old to have another baby. I just want you for my baby.

Peter: Mama, you're not too old. Bucia (grandma) is old. You're teeth cant come out. That means you're not old. Anyways Tink says that babies swim from the daddy to the mama. The mama and daddy attach and the babies swim through the tunnel so it could swim to daddys tummy through the tunnel and he could have the baby if you're too old. Babies can play with the sharks in the water and swim wherever they want.

I laughed at his nonsense. He prattled on and suddenly it hit me like a lightening bolt.

Last time we talked about it Peter had a much different version of how he got in my tummy.

Oh oh, who's been talking to Tink! What does she know? We haven't had the birds and the bees talk yet. She's only nine for crimeny sake! My baby! Who told her?

I take deep calming breathes. I talk to myself. Okay, okay, she cant know too much if she thinks babies can swim from one tummy to another. But wait. That might be Peters addition; like the sharks! I know Tink never said anything about sharks! Did she?

Oh mercy! Now what?

Okay people when did you hear how babies were made? Tinks too little! I don't want her to know yet. I didnt know till I was 14. yeh I know that's too old in this day and age but nine? I mean she's nine! That's only 113 months old! NINE!

Oh boy! Where did I put the smelling salts?

Okay people; heres a way to explain it. I recieved this in my email.

A little boy goes to his father and asks "Daddy, how was I born?" The father answers: "Well son, I guess one day you will need to find Out anyway! Your Mom and I first got together in a chat room on Yahoo.Then I set up a date via e-mail with your Mom and we met at a cyber-cafe. We sneaked into a secluded room, where your mother agreed to a download from my hard drive. As I was ready to upload, we discovered that neither one of us had used a firewall, and since it was too late to hit the delete button, nine months later a little Pop-Up appeared that said: You got Male
