One of them shared that she didn't like snakes, so Jack took it upon himself to tell her that his daddy used to breed snakes. "Do you know what breed means?" he asked.
As I tried to figure out the best way to intervene, Jack explained as best he could.
"It means when two snakes love each other and they make a completely new snake!"
So I quietly walked away and jotted that little nugget down so that I wouldn't forget how completely tactful and appropriate my little man was in explaining a tricky subject to his four year old friends.
And then I smiled because, somewhere along the way, he's learned that loves come first :)
