Sitting in the crowded (overbooked) waiting area for our flight home from North Carolina, my inquisitive, spit-fire daughter looked up at me and asked The Question:
"Mommy, how do you get the baby out of the tummy?"
Eyes all over the waiting area turned and looked at me and Jason.
But we were completely prepared.
"Marcie, we will tell you all about it. Later. Not at the airport."
And we did. Well, I did. The next day. I explained both ways. She asked if it hurt. I was honest (I don't know, but I've heard it does). But does it hurt very bad? Yes, I think so. But it's worth it. When you're 30. Because that's how old you should wait to be until you become a mom. (This is my standing answer for everything.)
