Akward Converstations with a 4 year old

This morning Avery asked me a question that really caught me off guard......Sometimes it is hard to know when to be honest and direct or bend the truth a little...like when giving the birds and the bees explanation.

So Hailey was screaming and Avery asks.......
"Mom why don't you just lift up your shirt and let her eat you."

Me- "Uhmm you mean breastfeeding?" "Well she does not eat that way anymore."

Avery- "Why not"

Me- "Well because she eats out of a bottle plus I don't have any milk for her anymore."

Avery- "Why....where did it go....your butt?"

Me- "Uhh no...my body just doesn't make it anymore."

Avery- "Will your boobies go away too."

Me- "No hopefully I will always have them."

Avery- I hope I never get boobies.....and if I do I just will wear a big apron over them."

Me- Well you are a girl so you will get them when you are older

Avery- under her breath she says.......gross.

I guess sometimes I just don't realize she notices these things....and thinks about them....I just hope she does not offer all this information to her friends and teachers at preschool. I don't want her to go around and tell all her friends that they are going to have boobies when they get older.
