Today’s slice is a throwback to maybe seven years ago. I was stuck for an idea, so I started scrolling through my phone and found this picture:
From this book my son found at Barnes and Noble:
We LOVED this book, as we are both worriers. But the reason I took a picture of this specific page, even though this isn’t a worry either one of us has had, is because of this slice…
Troy was five and an early riser. I could hear the television on in the living room, but I could also hear him playing, so I didn’t rush downstairs. When I did drag myself out of bed and walk downstairs, he couldn’t wait to tell me what he had learned from A Baby Story on TLC…
“Mommy! Guess what?!”
“What?”
“Some babies get cut out of their mommy’s tummies like me, but other babies get pooped out in a pool of water!”
He had turned on the television and watched an episode of A Baby Story that included a water birth…I didn’t correct him at the time, but he does know the truth now. Don’t worry.

Oh my! I wouldn’t know where to begin my response to that! Funny!
O the wonders of what your children learn when we are not around. What a great story. I remember those days I hearing the TV and not worrying and then sorry I had not gotten up to see what was really going on. Love this post.
Yep, I had that conversation with two of my daughters walking through the mall. They just kept asking until I answered and then they were super silent. Amazing how scrolling through phone pictures can rally up some stories.
Pooping a baby into a pool…If it were only that easy…Ha!
How cute! It’s interesting how he sounded excited to tell you that babies get “pooped” out, rather than disgusted! LOL!
Dead 🤣
Hilarious! Thanks for sharing.
