The birds, the bees, and turtles

Dinner conversation tonight.

Isaac: Mom, a kid in class brought a baby turtle to school. He found a female turtle that was pregnant, it laid eggs and now he has baby turtles.

Hayden: How does a turtle get pregnant? (couldn't he say, wow! I want to see a baby turtle.)

Caite: You know, just like snakes and people, and everything else gets pregnant. (not that she has any idea, other than bellies just start to grow)

Hayden: Yeah, but how do turtles get pregnant?

Isaac: Did you know that black widows eat the male after they lay eggs?

Caite: Mom, good thing you don't do that, because you don't lay eggs.


Where oh where is Aaron when I need him??!!
