Birds and the Bees Lesson #2: How to Tell if You're Pregnant
L: "Mom, I know how you found out you were going to have a baby!"
K: "Oh really? How?"
L: "Well, you went outside and got a stick from a tree. And then you peed on it and it turned pink and that's how you knew you were going to have a baby." Pauses, a grossed-out expression crossing her face. Accusingly: "Mom, you peed outside."
K: "I did not pee outside. So who told you all this?"
L: "Janet."
K: "Well, I did pee on a stick, but not the kind from a tree. It was a special plastic stick. And I was in the bathroom."
L: "Oh."

Janet is Alex's mom.
You have to know that Lucy is not that far off. Someone out there somewhere is working on an all natural organic pregnancy test that will come in your choice of birch or maple. They will sell it at Whole Foods for $85 and a younger version of myself will have to figure out how to merchandise it.
