Dinosaurs and Stuff

The other day Freda says, "There's something i don't understand."

"What's up honey?"

"You know, before there was dinosaurs? Like before there were people?"

"Yeah?"

"Where did the people come from?"

It's the second time she's asked us and honestly, I was not expecting this conversation for another handful of years.

Our response was simple.

"Many different people believe many different things about where we came from."

The rest of the conversation I consider private as we explained our beliefs.

She's an individual. She has her own likes, dislike, beliefs, tastes, opinions, ideas...and we treat her that way. It's my job as a parent to keep her in between the lines and afford her the opportunity to eclipse my accomplishment in life.

And shes thriving. IMHO.
