When Kids Know Too Much

We recently welcomed our 4th child, a daughter . After all the "agony " of being in the hospital for 10 weeks ...everything worked out fine. We are so blessed and she is beautiful. Last night I saw an interesting site that showed me just how much this baby adventure affected my other kids. I walked in on my oldest son and oldest daughter playing. It's a sight that warms my heart whenever I see it. I usually casually smile and walk on by. But something about this play was different. My daughter was laying on the floor with a blanket propped over her chest on some chairs. It looked exactly like when I had my C section. I stopped to listen. I heard that my girl was going to have a baby and my boy was going to do surgery! He had his Lego knife, needle ( to sew her up) and a tool to " cut the womb" and one to hold her skin open! The baby was delivered successfully and then I saw my sweet princess laying down with her new baby saying " I can't move my legs , but I have a baby!" She even had a Lego bed controller for her makeshift hospital bed! Wow, I thought that this new addition would enlighten our world, but I didn't know just how much!
