One week ago...
Reese: Mommy-what are these? (pointing to her chest)
Mommy: Those are nipples.
Reese: Who has nipples?
Mommy: Mammals have nipples. Anything with hair has nipples.
Reese: Do you have nipples?
Mommy: Yes, i have hair, so i have nipples.
Reese: Does daddy have nipples?
Mommy: Does daddy have hair?
Reese: Yes-so he has nipples.
Mommy:Very good.
We continued our conversations about other animals that do and do not have hair and nipples...
Reese: Mommy, does milk come out of my nipples?
Mommy: Only mommy's have milk from their nipples, to feed their baby.
Conversation ended, so i thought...
Last night...
Reese: Mommy, crocodiles have nipples.
Mommy: No, crocodiles do not have hair.
Reese: Why not?
Mommy: They are reptiles.
Reese: Whats a reptile?
Mommy: Reptiles are lizards, crocodiles, frogs-they are slimy animals without fur.
Reese: What about a butterfly?
Mommy: Butterfly's are insects, they don't have fur.
Reese: Yes, mommy, caterpillars have fur and they are a butterfly before their cocoon.
How can I argue with that?
