Well kudos to you for being so open and honest! I know my parents never had 'the talk' with me. When I had my first period I was so ashamed and embarrassed I never told anyone. I would sneak tampons or just put toilet paper in my underwear as pads! I had no clue what was going on!

We never talked about sex in our family. I am really glad to hear that someone is so open with their child about the nature of the human body. And we all know that, as kids, we can always tell when people are bs-ing us. Especially our parents! So going in with a bunch of fairy tales about storks and such only makes them more curious and wanting to go elsewhere for information. Plus, now she will feel more comfortable and close to you.
