She's Running Scared.

Follow-up to the "meat comes from animals" post:

The morning after the aforementioned debacle that ended with hysterical laughter from my 4 year old, I was doing the dishes while she sat on the couch watching Little Einsteins. Suddenly, she spurted out, with more than a little trepidation in her voice,

"Mom, where do CARROTS come from?"

I was enormously relieved to be able to give her an answer that involved seeds, soil, water and sun rather than cute animals and butcher blocks.

She was relieved, too.

Hilarious! When Scotty asked how babies come out of mommies tummies last year, I was very grateful he was asking specifically about my friend that always has c-sections! It was a nice and easy answer!
