Between us

What do you say to a child when she says,
"Mama, my nipples are so small" and pinches them with her little fingers for effect.

You stare and wait for the next line.

"Yours is so big", she said staring at my chest.

As a mother your first instinct is to console.........

"Yours will become big too!"

I only hope she doesn't go and repeat that somewhere.......!

Oh-my-God. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. This is hilarious. Where on earth did she learn what those were? Very very funny though, but gotta work on not teaching her every part of the human body. ;)

Hey, you're back ! Well, how about this - D asked me the other day why he doesn't have a "big chest" like me, and got very upset when I told him only "mummies and aunties" get to have big ones.
