what delights me

A few days ago, Sassy and I were looking at the computer together. We were on the HipMama website and on the sidebar was an ad that contained this picture:



We both noticed the picture, and this is the conversation that followed:

Sassy: Mommy, what is that?
Me: I don't know...I was wondering the same thing...
Sassy: Maybe it's your placenta!

Yes, it delights me that my three year old has seen a real-life placenta and it didn't freak her out. And it delights me that she remembers the word "placenta" and knows how to use it properly. And it delights me that she regards placentas and the like to be a normal part of the human existence.
