Words Do Indeed Make a Difference

Little T and I went to visit a friend today who just gave birth to a new baby. On the way, she asked me if a mommy has to be cut up to get a baby out of her belly.

During the conversation that ensued, I discovered that the word opening is much nicer than the word hole.

That's right. I have two biological children and have never experienced a contraction in my life. :D
