conversation on the way home from gymnastics tonight.
molly - mom, i understand that females carry the X chromosome and males carry the X or Y. to have a baby, how does the male chromosome get into the female?
me- uhhh... well, it is one of God's miracles honey.
molly- well, then i think every baby would be a girl, because only the mother is the one who is making it, there isn't any real way that the husband's DNA could mix with the mother's.
me- ummm (thinking to self, im not smart enough to answer this correctly)
well, when daddy and i kiss, we exchange DNA molly.
molly- oh, ok. so if i married somebody, but agreed to never ever touch them, i could just have girls?
me- i guess so molly, but boys really are easier.
