Just To Lighten The Mood...

I just hate that the last post I put up was so hormonal and pathetic and gloomy...AND that it's the first thing people see when they come to visit me. So I'm here today with a funny story (and I feel much better after a good night's sleep, thank you very much!).

Now, this isn't the kind of story I would usually tell in such a public forum...sorta embarassing. But since my folks are sitting in my living room...maybe there's a chance that my Dad will miss this post. You'll understand...hang in there. (And Dad, if you're reading this...well, sorry.)

So the other day I was changing my two year old's clothes. My 4 year old and one of her little friends were in the room with us and just chatting away. I took off Samantha's jammies and began putting her shirt on. Sammy started singing "boobie boobie boooobie". Nice...very ladylike, my sweet. I just giggled to myself and kept on getting her dressed.

But, it turns out, Sammy got Clara's and her friend's little minds working. Clara observed,

"Mommy, little girls have little boobies, right?"

"That's right."

"And when we get bigger, our boobies get bigger?"

"Yep."

"Yeah, I thought so. And they get 'hang-ey', right?"

"Well...."

Friend chimes in, "Yea, Clara. They get floppey and hang-ey."

Oh my

Then they both start in with the lovely descriptors ...floppey...hangey...dangly...droopy...is there no dignity left??

Oh great, now the first thing people think when they visit me is floppey and hangy! I'd better stop now and get another post started.
