{sometimes it stinks to be in a medical family because we tend to get all scientific and explain everything the way it really happens without all the funny drawings of eggs and stuff}
But seriously, is this real? Because, again, it’s brilliant!
I’m going to assume that Rhys gave you permission; otherwise, she’s going to KILL you.
{also, you probably better talk to her about birth control because — seriously? she wants answers}
The conversations are real – every drop – but not the diary! I was so caught off guard I didn’t know what the hell to say to her about the babies. A picture was the best I could do. She’ll have nightmares for years! And Ava was DYING!
Deal! Now I hope she keeps up the crazy conversations!
This is hilarious and touching (especially the feeling blue part, that got to me). I could totally feel your discomfort when asked how not to make a baby. Sometimes we have no idea the way our children’s little minds work….
Fantastic!! This weekend we got…”who came up with painting toenails? I mean really why? Why don’t we just paint our butts green? It’s like the same thing.”
SO freaking CUTE!!!! Yeah- I told each of my kids when they Incessantly asked on their own. I just got down right honest- there’s just no other way for me to do it. I feel liberated in an awkward way…
This is such an adorable idea!!! XO
i loved this!! so funny – and look at you – so talented with the re-creation!! i loved your picture but my favorite was when rhys said she didn’t care about daddies feelings and just wanted to play the game. soo funny and honest!! you’ve got a weekly feature here!!
Oh, that’s not her real diary! She only knows how to scribble at this point! But I’ll take a timeout anyway!
This post makes my heart sing! So damn creative and funny. I love you, you wit and your writing . . . .in addition to your family!!! Thanks for making me smile.
PS: Every time I’m on your site I’m in awe of the ribbons/awards on the right . . . and think to myself . . . .”hmmmmm, I think more accolades come in for A Teachable Mom than gets acknowledged by the said writer of this site.” Could this be true? Flap those arms/wings Miss Mary. Congratulations!!!!!
I recognize the way that kid thinks.
I almost can’t wait to hear what she comes up with today!
Is that real? Because THAT is hilarious.

So true – kids’ brains amaze me and make me squirm! Thanks for visiting!

Thank you! My daughter will be getting more details as she continues to ask. Ugh!

As long as she provides the material, I’ll do it!
Haha! The baby talk… been there! Love the structure of this, great idea.
Thanks!!
Amazing. Just amazing. I’m pretty sure my mom once drew me a picture too.
I’d love to see that one! Maybe I could get tips from her?
Is all this true? Recent?
Did you really draw a picture?
If true, I hope you took the timeout as needed.
All true. All Recent. Yes to the picture and the timeout. God help me.
Impressive writing for a five-year-old. Does she know you saw it? You might need another timeout.
Oh, that’s not her real diary! She only knows how to scribble at this point! But I’ll take a timeout anyway!
