Trevan last night (while holding up his shirt showing me his belly: When I grow big, I will grow a baby
Me: You won't grow a baby, boys don't grow babies.
Trevan to daddy: Boys don't grow babies.
Trevan to me: When will I grow a baby?
Me: You won't, boys don't grow babies, only girls do.
Trevan: But I want to grow a baby. How do I grow a baby?
Me: You get married, and your wife, a girl can grow your baby.
Trevan: How does the baby get in your belly?
John looks at me laughing
Trevan: How does the baby get in your belly? How did I get in your belly when I was a baby?
Pause
Me: Well, you started out really little, like a seed, that is how you fit in mommy's belly.
Luckily, the conversation was interrupted by something. Is three years old to early for the birds and bees talk? :)

That's funny. Since I have daughters, I defer all such questions to my wife.
Very funny! And I think it's perfectly okay to dodge that question at his age.
Bahahahaha! Already asking the tough questions.
Next time, your response should be, "Ask daddy!"
Hermana- I tried to call you last night... Now I know why there was no answer! Have fun with that! I think you should just let him know... Everything...
K I'm joking but thats so funny. You should defer it till aunt Cheryl comes, I'll fill him in...
Yeah, Daddy WAS there. Who knows how he would answer anyway. Last night Trevan wanted to know why the moon was following us while we were in the car, and why it was so little. You would think John would give a simple three year old answer, right? no, no. John went into the whole thing, the sun shines on the moon, earth being a shadow, etc. etc. I even zoned out I was so bored, but then Trevan totally got it!!! he explained it back, but in three year old terms the whole shadow thing. He is just too funny!!
tell him you don't know and to ask his grandparents. hee hee.
i don't remember asking those questions until at least elementary school.
also, YAY! i found you!!
