Where do babies come from?

Tahlia was asking me in the car on the way home today, how do babies come out of thier mummies tummies.

I took a deep breath and replied, they push them out. I'm big fan of the "need to know basis" parenting style, give only the neccessary and age appropriate information!

She thought about this and then asked - but how? While i was trying to form an appropriate answer to this question, she said, "Oh, I know, like this" and then gave quite a good impression of a lady giving birth!

After this, she said, I wish i had a baby.

Daddy replied from the front seat "no you don't, if you did you'd have to get up the middle of the night to look after it"

Tahlia's reply? - Well daddy, you know, the daddy can get up TOO!

I have trained my daughter well!!

I am convinced that large birds with very long bills, (Storks) bring the babies. This is what Donna Reed said to Jimmy Stuart in the classic movie "It's a Wonderful life."
