Just a brief post...

So, something funny happened today. Let me back up and say that my sister Kristen taught my daughter Alyson that there is a baby in her tummy. Now, of course, Alyson goes up to everyone pointing to their tummy and saying "Baby?" (Including Travis Hoverman... that one was quite hilarious.) Anyway, so upstairs she (for the millionth time) points to my stomach and says "Baby?" and I said "no, honey, mommy doesn't have a baby in her tummy". Jed pipes up with "Girls have babies, not boys." I told him that he was right, and then he sat there for a second, thinking. Then he smiles and says "Some girls have babies, but not the hippopotamus" (Alyson has been carrying the book "But Not the Hippopotamus" around everywhere for about a week. It was actually lying on the floor by her while all of this was going on.) Then Jed proceeded to start laughing. It was quite funny.
