Two Moms, No Dad....but wait!

Anna overheard this conversation in our backyard at the fence between the boys and some kids from their school who were with a baby sitter.

Friend - "Can we come in your yard to play?"

Babysitter to Anders and Kuba - "Are your mom and dad there?"

Silence

Babysitter again - "Can I talk to your mom and dad?"

Kuba to sitter in a happy go-lucky tone - "Well, we do have one dad.  He's a stuffed animal."

Okay, as an alternative family with two moms and no dad, these moments are priceless.  Listening to my kids navigate typical questions like this is new.  Kudos to Kuba for taking a question that doesn't really capture his family and finding a way to answer this with his own creative Kuba twist on things.
