I had been reading a book to the boys about a Mama Bear and her cub. Mama Bear was pregnant and the pictures showed her belly getting huge and the family welcoming a cub to the family. I had never really shown the boys my pregnancy photos, so I thought it would be a fun opportunity to pull out baby photos. In the midst of explaining that they were both in my belly at the same time, Trevin looked at me with intense seriousness and said, "Mommy, don't you EVER put me in your belly AGAIN." (Surely he imagined that the only I could get him in my belly was to eat him!)
A few days later Mekhi asked me if I put a blanket in my belly to keep them warm.
Trevin was really thinking this idea through and I had to tell him about it several times. One of those times, my brother walked through the room and, in an under-the-breath comment, mentioned that I should just "tell them about the Stork, it would be easier!"
