Smudgelet: Mummy, why don't you get married and have a baby like E has?
Mummy: It's not quite that simple, Smudgelet. First I'd have to find the perfect person to marry and who wanted to marry me. It's not happened yet (I didn't mention that each of the events HAS happened, just not simultaneously with the same person!) And even then I wouldn't necessarily have a baby.
Smudgelet: Why not?
Mummy: (hmmm.... how does one tackle with an 11 year old the topic of being to old for childbearing?) Well, I'm heading for being old enough to be a grandmother so by the time the husband I haven't got and I were ready to have a child, I'd be too old to be a mum.
Smudgelet: Well that's simple, then. Just ask E if you can borrow her husband for a night or two to get you pregnant and then you needn't worry about getting married.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've asked her to check his diary! ;o)
