Jeff and I and the girls were spending time together Friday night and Sara announced that she knew how to make babies-she is 10. Well, maybe she does. She giggled and ran upstairs as I wondered if I needed 
to have a talk with her. A little later I went upstairs and she had made a baby, out of her clothes--life size. Apparently this is how they made their play dolls at the orphanage. Sara's baby spent the night with the girls, on the floor on a pillow with a blanket. The next day Ruth jumped right into it and made a baby too. They are so creative and I have to learned to listen to ALL that Sara has to say before I have to jump to a conclusion...she almost got an education that she may not be ready for. I did explain to the girls that it is best NOT to tell their teachers or friends that they know how to make a baby, but how to make a doll. I do not want calls from school for from other parents!
