Sweet dreams, not wet dreams

No. 1 Son - Mum, we had sex ed. today and I have a question.

Me - Did you?  What did you learn?

No. 1 Son - Well, we learned that when girls are a certain age, they bleed and have a period and have to wear pads and tampons.

Me - Mmm...That's right.  And do you know why they bleed?

No. 1 Son - Yeah, because the egg's not fertilised.

Me - Right.  The egg goes down the fallopian tube and into the womb, and if they're not fertilised, the lining of the womb comes away.  And do you know how the egg gets fertilised?

No. 1 Son - Yeah, you put the penis in the vagina and the sperm swim really fast to get to the egg and most of the sperm dies.

Me - Aha... So every single person is a miracle because one little sperm swam really hard to get to that egg.  What did you want to ask me?

No. 1 Son - Um...What's an orgasm?

It's official, my baby's really not a baby any more :((

  1. Ahhhhhhh....the talks that are ahead (no pun intended on the "head" part)! Here is one for you..
    Daughter: Mommy, why is the baby in Amy's tummy and not Paul's?
    Me: Well, girls have a special place in their bodies that men don't have called a womb for the baby to grow in.
    Daughter: Why don't men have a womb?
    Me: God made men and women differently. I don't know why He made the woman with the womb instead of men.
    Daughter: Kind of like men have a penis and women have a vagina?
    Me: yup.
    Daughter: ....
    Me: Do you have anymore questions?
    Daughter: Yes. How do you say 'vagina' in Spanish?

If you don't have anything nice to say, please don't say anything at all!

I've done it!!!

Well, I've finally done it!! Got accepted into Uni AND created a blog!!! After searching for insightful websites to help me tackle my journey into academia at my ripe old age and coming up with nil, I decided to start one of my own. I hope this blog will encourage anyone who has ever doubted their own abilities, to put one foot in front of the other and achieve their ambitions, desires, dreams...no matter what they are. If anyone has any inspiring stories to share, I would love to hear them. I love an inspiring story!!!
