So Grace comes downstairs last night and asks me what 'repopulation' means. I give her the Noah story...and after the flood, his descendants repopulate the earth. I get a blank look. So, I try to simplify it for her.....I say "Let's say we had a fish tank with 20 fish in it and they get a sickness and all but 2 die. Then we go to the pet store and buy more fish.....we have repopulated the tank." Now she asks me if by having her, I repopulated. I say "no- it's not just one person having a baby....it's more than that...on a bigger scale". She comes back with "Well, Dr. Anne (my boss) and Joe (her husband) had 3 kids....did they repopulate??
I almost peed my pants laughing!!!
