Conversation before bed

Pickle: We are doing body work at school.
Momma: Oh really?  What sort?
P:  There is a little skeleton on the shelf, it's new.  DO NOT TOUCH IT, DO NOT take it to a table.  It is just for looking.  With your eyes.
M: Oh Ok.
P: It's knees and feet and hands move.
M: How do you know that?  If you aren't supposed to touch it?
P: Ahhhh... I just do.  Did you know if you had no bones you would just be a big slug.  A BIG SLUG Momma.
M: That's right, a big slug.
P: Inside your skeleton are your organs.
M: I know!
P: and your intes... integ... intestegans; they are gooey.
M:  What?
P: Your intestegans, they are gooey, you can't touch them, they are inside.
M: Right, your intestines, you think they look gooey?
P: You can't touch them, why can't you touch them?
M: They are inside you.
P: But I want to touch them, How can I touch them?
M: You know... lets have some quiet time.
