Kids say the cutest things

My youngest, Emily, has been going through a "phase" lately, where she just wants to wear her swimming suit everyday. I'm not sure if she is trying to send a positive vibe out into the air to remind Mother Nature that yes, it is May, and we should be experiencing warm swimming weather by now. If that is the case, then we're all wearing our swimming suits to church on Sunday.

The other day she was wearing her one piece and had to go to the bathroom. She wanted to let me know that she was going to have to take off her suit to go because it didn't have an opening. I told her that was how my swimsuit worked too.

She looked at me and said, "You don't have a swimsuit, silly."

"Oh, but I do," I replied. "I just haven't been seen in it since 1999."

Emily looked at me and then casually stated, "Mom, you can't wear a swimsuit-you're an old lady."

No Christmas presents for this kid.

  1. I usually need an act of God or Congress to wear a swimsuit. Just the thought of it is enough to make me move to Alaska. And I detest snow.
