The Day My 3 Year Old Gave Birth… To A FurReal Pet

My brother-in-law and sister-in-law are expecting their first child in a few weeks.  Each time we see my sister-in-law’s growing belly, we talk about the anticipated arrival of their new baby cousin.

They are excited- though I am certain that neither Ryan (7) nor Laina (3) really “get” the whole baby in-belly concept. Still, up until now neither have really asked any technical questions about it {wipes sweat from my forehead}.

However, this afternoon as we were getting ready to go to the bus stop to pick up Ryan, I turned around to find my 3 year old’s belly suddenly seemed … larger.

She explained to me very matter of factly– “My puppy has to grow and get big. So I put him in my shirt. When he gets big, I will take him out. But don’t worry, Mommy- it won’t hurt when I take him out.”

Where do kids come up with this stuff?

We walked out with puppy-in-shirt and when we parked at the bus stop, I couldn’t help but dig a little more.

And well… there you have it.
