What's a Woman?

Last night at the dinner table, this little cutie surprised me with the question, "Mom, what's a woman?"

I told her that a woman is a grown up girl.

She responded, "Someone who's really old?"

I told her that they didn't have to be really old. I also added that technically *I* am a woman. I hoped she didn't say, "But Mommy, you're really old!" And I could see Jon trying to stifle his own laughter.

She thought about what I said, the definition, the fact that I'm a woman, and then said, "I think I'll just call you, Mommy," very matter-of-factly.
