Driving down 95 South on the way to visit family, a voice from the back seat asks, "Mommy, where to babies come from?"


It's my 6 year old son... and he truly wants to know so I have to answer him!


Has this happened to you?


Trapped in the car, on the highway with no way to escape the inquiring minds of ychildren or even your spouse?


Having 6 children, this has been more the norm than I would have liked.


But, when I think about all those road trips, the laughter, the questions, the fumbling for answers... 


On my part usually as my husband would crack a joke then look at me as if to say, " ok, I primed the audience, now you're on!"


Like he was the opening act in a comedy club and I was the mainliner. 


But, HEY! No pressure.


Now I realize we were lucky that our children felt comfortable, secure and safe enough with us to ask the hard questions...


Not just where do babies come  from, but how did they get there and how do they get out?


Or, mom is a BJ safe sex?


Or, Hey, mom, have you ever smoked weed?


Or, did dad ever skip school?


Honesty is the best policy so... they got the answers to their questions that would be both honest, and not sound like they were allowed to do whatever it was they were asking about.


Was it easy? Heck No! But, I can honestly say that no children, or parents were scarred for life during these Car Conversations...


at least I don't think so.
