The Questioning Begins

Our daughter asked me today if she grew in my belly. She has been ours since she was four months old and it became official when she was two and a half years old. She is five and a half years old now.

She has asked about how she came to be ours before, but she would always say something about being in my belly and didn't ask whose belly she was in. This time when I told her she grew in my heart and that I have loved her from the first time I held her in my arms she asked "whose belly did I grow in?" And "didn't they want a baby?" 

We knew a day would come when she would have questions. We were not expecting it to be so soon.
