I was caught off guard when Adi asked me where do babies come from? I gave Robi as an example that he came from my tummy. Adi became more curious and asked if I meant “I gave birth to Robi.” I tried to keep my amusement and simply said “yes.”

“I think it’s wrong, Mama. Baby boys are delivered by daddies while baby girls are delivered by mommies.”

I explained that only women give birth. In time, he would understand.

I don’t remember me asking my parents questions that would put them in an overwhelming position. Maybe, it was just me. I better prepare myself for more “shocking” questions from my kids. LOL.
