That Was A Close One

Ok, so Mommy got herself a little present for once and picked up the new iPhone 5 just before Christmas.  I'm loving it.

Still exploring some of the many things I can do with it, but don't regret it a bit.  Now, I finally "turned on" Siri the other day at home and showed my 6 year old daughter what you can do with it.  She was in awe and practically begged me to use it.

Sure, fine, no problem.  Just push the little microphone and ask it what ever question you'd like the answer to.

"Ok, can I try now?".  So, I hand over the phone and wait to see what her little mind is wondering...

"Where do babies come from?"  Holy BALLS WHAT??  Lord help me.  My husband and I quite literally froze, staring at the iPhone dreading what was going to come from Siri.

"Ok, here you go..."  Siri says..."From their mothers."  Praise Jesus, that's an answer I can handle.  Breathe Mama, you're all good.  "How do they get there?" Maddie adds.  This is where I made a superhero style lunge for the phone...Siri, don't make me hurt you..."Would you like me to look it up on the web?".  No thanks Siri, we're good.

Phew, that was close.  Yes, one day I will have to have the full on conversation with her, but not now, not when she's 6.  There are already far too many things that make my kids grow up too quickly, this is NOT going to be one of them, at least not yet.

She still thinks boys are silly (which they are) and that her boyfriend is our best friend's husband.  Can't blame her really, he's a musician and he's got an accent.

Just know Siri, I got my EYE ON YOU!
