It is so fun to expose Jennifer to things she might not normally see.
This afternoon I was watching some clips of the NBC interview with Octo-Mom. Jennifer came into my room so I showed her the woman on the screen and explained that 8 babies just came out of her. Jennifer was shocked... she didn't know it was possible. So I told Jennifer the Mom had to have help from a doctor to have that many babies at one time.
The NBC interview went on to tell how Octo-mom was implanted with 6 babies (didn't want to get into a discussion about embryos) but the ultrasound showed 7 and during delivery it turned out to be 8!
I also told Jennifer the woman has 6 children at home, no husband, no job, lives with her parents (which isn't that unusual in India) so it's crazy that she went on to have more children.
We watched more of the interview together.
As we were watching Jennifer noticed the mother's fingernails. The Octo-Mom had a French Manicure and Jennifer thought it was very pretty. I tried explaining a French Manicure and went to Google Images for assistance. We looked at all kinds of French Manicures and Pedicures. As we looked at the pictures there were pictures of people with long fingernails that progressed into Guinness Book contestant-type length fingernails. Jennifer exclaimed that she had never seen anything like it.
So I typed in "long finger nails" which showed us some grotesquely long fingernails and eventually led us into alternative lifestyle photos such as piercings. So I typed in "facial piercings" and that led us to photos of tattooing, piercings, under skin implants, filing teeth, splitting tongues, etc.
Jennifer was captivated...
