It's a loaded topic and an important one, but tough to navigate. So, I'm trying to teach A without completely freaking her out. They grow up so freaking fast!Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01897963154223770756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334921515741798160.post-23275929644996106182010-04-11T12:53:43.694-07:002010-04-11T12:53:43.694-07:00I yi yi.

Although the Easter egg condoms on the prior post lead me to believe that it might involve some mention about the importance of the responsible use of birth control. <br /><br />You are such a good mom, with your "alternative terms for flatulance" and all. Whenever this comes up, you'll do great.<br /><br />jbhatAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334921515741798160.post-25008225037693497192010-04-09T06:46:42.668-07:002010-04-09T06:46:42.668-07:00Tricky situation isnt it?

You wouldn't hesitate if it had a marijuana leaf on it ...I dont see any difference.Shayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11032969125788408807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7334921515741798160.post-55112653486924889382010-04-09T05:59:36.739-07:002010-04-09T05:59:36.739-07:00One marital disagreement in our house centered aro...One marital disagreement in our house centered around Santa.
