During our bedtime chat last night:
Kirsten: I want a mei mei. Can I have a mei mei?
Me: You do? I’m not agreeing to one yet but even if I have another baby, it might not be a girl, you know?
Kirsten: Because girls are more difficult to make? Must make the long hair and the eyes and the toes…
Me: Hahahhaha I guess you could see it that way. But you do know that mommy doesn’t actually *make* the baby right?
Kirsten: Your stomach makes the baby?
Me: No, not really. God makes the baby and mommy’s stomach is just like a storage area for the baby to grow until she’s ready to come out to meet you. We’ll talk about the biology of that another day, okay?
Kirsten: Did God make me too?
Me: Of course, sweetheart. He made you really really special.
*pause*
Kirsten: I think I will ask God to start making a mei mei for me now and I will share my Barbie phone with her.
Me: Um, ok maybe not right now. This storage facility needs to rest. Like in a year or two would be good.

haha awwww this cute lil girl wants a meimei. so funny when she said that girls are harder to make cause of the long hair and all.
I think she’s tired of being outnumbered by all the boys. Too much testosterone got to even it out a bit. :)
SO CUTE!! Yeah, I think girls are harder to make too.. Lol.. Longer hair, longer eyelashes, boobs, and the womb, etc.

Haha probably some truth there. Girls are more delicate and all.
You have really strong momnesia, Daphne. ;)

LOL can’t disagree with that! These kids are too darn cute.
She is so cute about the long hair and eye and nail part. Maybe she is correct!
Abby´s last post ..Going through transitions
I know, right?! It’s quite logically sound if you think about it…
Very motivated indeed! I’m just not as motivated cos I’m the one giving birth!
Cute, she’s ready to share her Barbie phone! Highly motivated :)
Very motivated indeed! I’m a lot less motivated cos I’m the one who has to give birth..
It is so adorable when the little ones make a “promise” with adults.
They will promise to be “good”, “share toys” etc. They look genuine hee hee, for all of 15mins.
Well, at least My Mrs and me feel good for 15min.
If kids have their way, I would be a papa again many times over :p

Hahaha that’s quite something coming from a father of 4! :)
That’s really sweet of Kirsten! I remember I used to pray to God to give my mom a baby so that I could have a baby sister. And she did! Lol. She gave me two more sisters and a brother ;)
Awww so nice! I’m definitely stopping at 1 more though!! Unless it’s twins, which would be kind of cute.
