Why did God Make Poo?

So I was supposed to write about this yesterday but you know this whole finding a job thing kinda takes up my time.

So Reese and I have wonderful conversations while driving to and from Frederick everyday. The things that come out of her mind are incredible. Yesterday was no different. We are driving along and I here "Mommy, why did God make Poo?" I'm thinking - really?!?! this?!?! this is my first stump the parent question?!?! Why couldn't I have gotten "Why is the sky blue" or "Where do chicken nuggets come from"(she knows babies come from bellies so she won't ask that) or pretty much anything else. But no I get asked to explain poo, and not just poo but why God created poo.

So I start off trying to explain how God gave us food so that we could have energy to play and have fun

"No Mommy, why did God create poo"

I told her I was getting there. That when our bodies eat the yummy food God gave us we feel good and happy

"No Mommy, why did God create poo" (with more emphasis this time)

So I begin to explain that we don't need everything we eat and what our bodies don't need they get rid of when we go potty.

"No Mommy! Why did God create Winnie the Pooh!"

I really should learn to get clarification for questions before I start answering!
