Kids Pop The Best Questions
(I’m currently eight months pregnant with a little boy, and in my anticipation of my impending motherhood I love chatting to the little ones that come through my line.)

Boy: “I’m four, but I am three feet tall which is really tall for my age. I am just going to get bigger and bigger and bigger, just like you are going to get fatter and fatter and fatter.”
(I laugh hysterically.)
Mother: “Honey, she isn’t fat. There’s a baby in there.”
Boy: *wide eyes* “How do they get a baby in there? Why is she working?”

Me: “I’m going to have a little boy just like you, who is going to get bigger and bigger and bigger.”
Boy: *panicked and near tears* “But you’ll pop!”
