The story of a baby

Conversation:

I'm in the kitchen, unpacking. The girls are playing in the living room.

Muuuuum!
Yes Clara.
Bring your camera, quick, I'm having a baby
[horror] what?
Muum I'm having a baby! Quick!

Wondering what I'm going down to, Clara is dressed in her cat dressing up outfit and has a balled up pink blanket against her tummy.

Ok, I have the camera, tell me what's happening.
It's ok Mummy! The baby isn't going to come out of my tummy, it's in an egg, it's going to crack open. Look.

Relief. Thank goodness for that!
