Conversation between Grace, her swim team buddy and me:
"Mommy, what does XL mean?"
"Like, what do you mean?"
"Like, Nintendo XL?"
"Oh, I don't know that much about Nintendo and all their different names."
"Oh, but, like, don't all your clothes say that, too?"
Thanks for noticing. "Oh. Yes. It means 'extra large'"
"And you need that right now because of the baby, right?"
"Yep--I need extra large" (because of the baby--very generous of you). Turning to her friend, "She needs extra room for the baby. It's called 'Maternity'" clothes."
"What's 'eternity' clothes?" asked the friend.
"It means, 'really fat', right mom?"
Girls, you both got it right.
That is an awesome conversation. I'm glad you recorded it on paper. It will bring a laugh some day when you need it. It brought me one today. Thanks
