The Birds and the Bees

Since today is national Laughter day, I thought I would share a funny story I was told the other day.

My good friend Jill has a 5th grade daughter who was shown the "Health and Sexual Education" video recently. Her daughter came home with some questions which lead to Jill giving her the details of the Birds and the Bees. Her daughter's jaw dropped and eyes popped and exclaimed "That is disgusting! Why would anyone want to do that?" Jill proceeded to explain that when a man and woman get married, they love each other very much and want to be closer. "Why don't they just kiss then?" her daughter asked innocently. Jill's daughter sat thoughtfully for a minute, while her mother gained composure. Then her daughter said "This makes me see everyone completely different... You mean Grandma and Grandpa did THIS?? AHhh! And Ms. Colleen, who is the MOST polite person I know... you mean SHE'S done it 4 times?? (she did the math on how many children i have) Poor Jill. Poor ME! I can never look at this child again without thinking "am I really that polite?"!!!
