Jen I also love it when I hear my daughter playing with their friends. Once a little friend said something about having to go to hospital. Dd1 said 'why, just have it at home, its not like you are sick' and dd2 aka miss social justice said 'you can have a baby where ever you want'
Later the little friend was making a lot of noise and the girls asked why. The friend said its sore having a baby, my girls said no its not. This started a fight, they came to me and I said 'no its just a lot of hard work to have a baby'
This is funny!! When I was working with some preschool children while pregnant with my first son, they started acting out having babies. OMG! Doctors, waling mother flat on the back, c-section!! I entered into a conversation with them about how babies aren't always born with doctors around and some are born at home. They were amazed and rather fascinated by the concept of a midwife.
