Funny Colin Story

Conversation with Colin yesterday:

Colin: "Mommy, you remember when you went to the hospital to have Luke?"

Me: "Yes"

Colin: "And Daddy and the doctor pushed Luke out?"

Me (a little perplexed at his understanding of giving birth): "Well honey, Mommy pushed Luke out with their help."

Colin, "No Mommy, when Grandma and I came to the hospital I saw Daddy and the doctor pushing Luke in the cart."

Ahhhhh! I then realize he is recalling the very first time he ever saw Luke. He and Grandma were just getting on the elevator to come up as Dad, Luke, and a nurse were taking him to the NICU for a blood panel to be done. And thus they were "pushing him at the hospital." Funny how we can read things in to what our kids say without realizing their point of view...
