If Only We Were Chickens

Taya LOVES her baby dolls. So much so that she believes she wants a live baby in the house. She's been talking about this for awhile now and Sunday night as she was getting out of the bath she informed me that I had a baby in MY belly and she wants a baby sister. I explained that mommy loves all my children but giving her a baby sister would push mommy clean over the edge and would send me to live in a place with padded walls. She found this funny and eventually decided that our family is fine the way it is and that SHE will get a baby in HER belly. A little while later she was in the living room making a fort and playing mommy and baby. I looked in the fort yet saw no baby. I asked her where her baby was. Without even missin' a beat she replied "I'm gonna LAY it later."
