The Mommy Test

>I was out walking with my then 4 year old daughter. She picked up >something off the ground and started to put it in her mouth. I asked her not to do that.
>
>"Why?"
>
>"Because it's been laying outside and is dirty and probably has germs."
>
>At this point, she looked at me with total admiration and asked, "Wow! How do you know all this stuff?"
>
>"Uh," I was thinking quickly, " . . . everyone knows this stuff. Um, >it's on the Mommy test. You have to know it, or they
>don't let you be a Mommy."
>
>"Oh."
>
>We walked along in silence for 2 or 3 minutes, but she was evidently pondering this new information.
"I get it!" she beamed. "Then if you flunk, you have to be the Daddy."
