is it as small as sperm?

Yep, you read that right. That was Lola's question to me today. Ever since she asked about babies, she has used "sperm" as how she compares the size of something small.

Today she accidentally knocked my glass off the table and it shattered on the floor. As I was cleaning it up, I talked about the shards of glass and how small they were. "Oh! Are they as small as sperm?" So then Bella chimes in, "what are sperm?". Lola very simply explains to her what they are and that they are very, very tiny. So then they go around the house picking things up and saying to each other, "is this as tiny as a sperm?".

Some days those girls just crack me up.
