HORSE

Today, on the way to swimming, we passed an old barn on the side of the road. Ben was commenting on how he "wondered if that farm just had an old barn and a super nice house." And how "I didn't know the guy had a horse but he saw one. And he has chickens, too." And how he "liked it when we moved here and he got to hold the chickens and pet the horses. The baby horse!" And from that the following conversation ensued:

 Ben: How does a mommy horse get a baby horse?

Mom: Well, it takes a mommy horse and a daddy horse.

Ben: I KNOW that. I know how the mommy and daddy get very close like a hug, then they make a little egg and then it grows to a baby. But how does it come OUT? Does it come out back here (Points to his bum)?

Mom: Yes.

Ben: It's right where you pee but it gets bigger. It's like dogs but not slimey. It's just a horse. Like a brown one. Does it come out forwards or backwards? Dogs come out front wards....

Mom: Oh, okay.......
