Family Planning

I don't know how we got on the subject, but in the van coming home from the YMCA the kids started talking about how many children they wanted to have when they grew up.

Eliza Claire: I'm gonna have six kids

Ruby: I'm gonna have two kids, one to do the dishwasher and one to do my favors

Charlotte: I'm going to have three. Hopefully a girl first and then boy/girl twins.

Rehm: Huh? (He was reading and not really paying attention to the conversation, though his answer would not have been very different if he had been paying attention.)

Ruby: I'm going to have a boy and a girl so the boy can do the dishwasher 'cause he might not be that 'sponsible.
