Mom, you have a BIG butt.

Just the other day, I went into the bathroom to prepare a mop bucket. My reigning princess was sitting upon her throne (the porcelain one). I bent over the tub to run the water, rinse the mop, and so on. Apparently my rear-end was right in her line of vision so she had no choice but to inspect it...and come to the conclusion that, "Mom. You have a big butt." I replied, "Yes I do. And you, Miss Izzy, have a small butt." She then said, in her little dramatically wistful whine, "Ohhh Mooom, when I grow up I want to be a mom just like you!" Then a pause, then, "Even if I do have a big butt. That's okay, right?" I said, "Yeah, that part's pretty unavoidable. When you get to be a mom like me, your butt is just going to be big."

Hahaha!! I had a kinda funny comment made to me the other day - our eldest child was wanting me to play the Wii, Mario Cart. I haven't played anything on there since last winter, and I said I should sometime, but wouldn't even remember how to drive it anymore. He assured me that 'Everyone knows you haven't played for a long time. And you weren't every very good at it anyway.' Heh! The comment was to be reassuring to me that their expectations would not be high ... :-)
