The Incredible Shrinking Woman

"Mom," my 4 year old son said to me this morning as I he held up my bra, "your bra is getting smaller."

"Really?" I asked.

He looked dubiously from the bra to my chest and finally declared, "But it still fits you."

I wonder what that means.

    He might be an aspiring bra fitter when he grows up. My husband would love that job!

    What's important to our babies huh?

    After feeding for almost twenty years, I sometimes feel like I'm just boobs on legs.

The Most Dreaded Words

 Everybody knows that Christmas is about keeping the Santa Secret and pleasing your children. Therefore, the most dreaded words are uttered on Christmas Eve. "I changed my mind, I want a [pony, scooter, bike, Red Rider BB gun]" A close second place winner is, "Can I have a New Year's Eve party?" Then, "Me, too?"

Too Sick to be Sick

I am sick.  Really and truly sick.  I even took a sick day and felt no guilt whatsoever that maybe I wasn't sick enough to have a "sick day."  Because I am.  My 5 year old was sick, too so I took him to the doctor.  I refuse to acknowledge that I'm sick because I don't get sick.  So with absolute glee, my little boy climbed up onto the table, stuck out his tongue and conversed with the doctor.  I heard something about cloudy ears and antibiotics and then I just turned it off.
