The Sex Talk

As we were lazing around this morning, Rose announced that Coco is going to have puppies.  Here's how the conversation picked up from there: 

Evan: What?!?!

Rose:  Coco is going to have a puppy. 

Evan:  How do you know? 

Rose:  When her nipples get big, that means she's going to have puppies. 

Evan (laughing):  Rose, you don't know anything about sex. 

Rose: Yes I do! 

Me:  What do you know about sex?

Rose:  I know about sex! (I cringe) . . . and the shiny beetles! 

Me/Evan: What?

Rose:  My friend told me about the shiny beetles.  They're black and brown.

Me:  What does that have to do with sex? 

Rose:  In-sects!  I know a lot about them, Mom! They're  . . . (begins a very long, detailed description of the aforementioned beetles.)

Whew!  For a moment there, I thought we were all going to get an education (once again) from our five-year-old.  We did, just not what I was expecting, which is just fine with me.
