oh, the things kids say...

i am still laughing at what audrey said to me.

Scene: in mcdonalds bathroom with audrey. she goes first, then stands in the corner as i go. she notices my stomach.


A: mom, your belly button doesn't look very nice. why isn't it pretty?

C: uh, i've given birth to three children. it stretches out your skin.

A: are you going to get surgery or something?

C: no, i don't show anyone my stomach.


(ok, so i didn't realize how closely she was watching when we saw the jon and kate plus 8 episode when kate got a tummy tuck. it showed before and after pictures, and was pretty cool. but not when your almost 5 year old makes a comment like that!)

You're so sweet. Thanks for the comment. I was starting to feel *very* alone on the issue.

That is so funny! I'm already coaching Landon to say "mom you have a small bootie." It works sometimes.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Too funny. I've been too busy to write or to read posts, but I'm catching up today. This one really made me laugh.
