This morning as I was getting ready for the day Isabelle casually asked me if I gave birth to myself. Trying not to laugh too hard I asked, "What makes you think that?""Well," she said, "You're a mommy and don't have parents, so you had to give birth to yourself."
I then told her that my parents were her Grandma and Grandpa. This seemed to only confuse her more.
"But that makes you a child! And if you're a child, you can't give birth!" she exclaims.
I then said, "Well, everybody has a mommy and daddy -- even Grandma has a mommy and a daddy!"
"Oh?" she said. "What's her mommy's name?"
"Gustie"
"Grustie?"
"No, Gustie"
"Grustie? Hmmmm..... I think everybody should be named Grustie. Daddy, Trevor, and Kelly are now named Grustie."
"Sounds good to me" I said.

Grustie!! I think you should buy her a dog/cat and name it Grustie, that is hilarious! I love that picture of her too, what a cutie!
I love the way kids think!
Ha ha, what a girl! Don't you love seeing their little minds at work figuring out the world?!
Eva is obsessed with our "genealogy." That is really cute that she thought since you were a child you couldn't give birth, that is so smart.
That is hilarious. Are you guys going to mom and dad's house for Thanksgiving? I hope so.
I love it. My girls ask questions like that.
