I was reading bedtime stories to the boys tonight, Darrick has duty, and we were reading a book called "Animal Babies". We got to page which had a picture of a family of turkeys. I saw it as a teachable moment and my teacher mode kicked in and I asked the boys to observe the differences between the daddy turkey and the mommy turkey. They said things like: the daddy is bigger, it has a beard, etc. I pointed out to them how beautiful the daddy was in color and feathers. Then I used other examples like peacocks and some birds we have here in Hawaii and how all the daddy birds are more beautiful.
Then Micah looks at me and says "Then Mommy, how come you are more beautiful then daddy?" And Jacob said, "Yea, Mommy you are more beautiful!"
Good Question Micah, good question...
