SHE WILL ALWAYS BE MY BABY, AND, THEREFORE, CAN NEVER EVER HAVE ONE

Last movie night, we screened Robots, a 2005 animated flick about a personified robot world. Within the first 5 minutes, the male lead goes running out of his job where he works as a dishwasher and down the street screaming, "We're gonna have a baby! Our baby's being delivered today!!"

But when he finally makes it home, his wife tells him disappointingly that he missed the delivery -- quite literally -- as the UPS man had just left the box on their doorstep a few minutes before he got home. (Cute, huh?)

Then she says to him, with a wink, "Don't worry, honey, it's making the baby that's half the fun."

And Saia turns to me and very matter-of-factly proclaims, "I want to have a baby."

And then I passed out.

Not sure why - But I'm getting a lot of the "baby stuff" lately too! "Mommy, when I grow up I'm going to have 12 babies!!!" Ugh! Really? Let's get through Preschool first!
