WARNING: MATURE CONTENT!

This was a conversation I had yesterday with Melina.
Melina: Mommy, is anyone supposed to kiss your privates?
Me: Pardon me? [I felt my face flush. I was baffled at where the thought of this came from.]
Melina: Does anyone kiss the private area?
Me: Well, no. It isn't appropriate to touch anyone there.
Melina: Because X told me that her mommy and daddy kiss the privates.
Alarm bells sounded off in my head. I NEEDED to clarify what happened, in the event a kid's safety is at stake.
Me: What do you mean? Do they kiss her privates?
Melina: No, her mommy and daddy kiss each other's privates.
Better, but not a conversation I want to have with my 5 year old. And how the heck does this other kid know that? Maybe she walked in on them?
Me: Well...
Melina: Maybe she was just joking me. 
And maybe Melina will forget this conversation ever happened. I can only hope.

The reason is this:  the minute we walk into that school, Melina's face shines.  Her eyes turn bright and she looks for people she knows.  Yesterday, we were lucky enough to find two classes in the hallway, looking at the books set out for the book sale.  Melina quickly scanned the kids, found Zoe, Talia, Jackie, Sammy, Talia D., Belle, Anna, and a few others, and gave them each a hug.  The funny thing is, all of these kids are so happy to see Melina. "Oh, Melina, how are you?" they squeal, or, "Can I have a hug, too?"  Melina is happy to oblige. All of that happened before we even made it into the front office to check in.  There, her celebrity status continued.  &
