Conversations in the car...

On the eve of Valentine's Day, love was on my brain.

We were driving home from the grocery store, and I asked, "Hey. You guys. What do you think love is? Fill in the blank. Love is..."

Avery, always first, yelled, "You and Dad!"

**Always first, and always profound!!**

I asked Lily, next. "Lil, what about you? Love is..."

Still staring out the window, she shrugged her shoulders, said, "I don't know."

**That child HATES being put on the spot!! Uh, no pun intended! You'll see the pun in a minute!**

Jake jumped in with, "Love is walking hand in hand."

Laughing, I said, "Awww, you're such a butt kisser!! It's Valentine's Day, dude...it's in the bag, if you know what I mean! No worries!!"

**Thank god the kids are still too young to pick up on our innuendos. I know it won't be for long, but, until then, the innuendos abound!!**

The entire time this conversation had been going on, the radio was on, but, it was just background noise. None of were really listening, as we were having a family discussion.

Or so we thought...

Jack blurted out, "Dad! What's a G-Spot?"

**WTF!!!!**

I turned to Jake and said, "Did he just say G-Spot?" Then, to Jack, "Where did you hear that?"

Jack said, "On the radio. Just now. They said, 'I'm going to the G Spot.' What is it?"

I was ready to pass it off under the "it's just grown up stuff" umbrella that I am so fond of using when I don't feel like answering difficult questions, but, Jake broke the awkward silence with...

"It's where the cool kids hang out."

**WTF!!!**

Satisfied with that answer, Jack sat back in his chair, arms folded, nodding his head, and boasted, "Then, I'm going to the G Spot!"

With my original conversation about love, dead in the water, I turned around, looked at Jake and said, "Way to go, Babe. WAY. TO. GO! I'm directing any calls from the school to YOU this week!!"

Ever since the Adam Lambert song "Whataya want from me", I've been thinking I really need to change the station... Thank you for reminding me to do so today.

Did you get any calls from school on this?
