Um, yeah. Hey, how about those Padres, Swee’Pea?!
I think I have documented before how much of a wimp I am when it comes to addressing some touchy issues that my kids bring up.
I guess I’m just not ready to imagine my little ones actually growing up. I just want to hold them and squeeze them and smooch them forever and ever. Alas, they seem to be conspiring against me. In fact, they insist on getting bigger and becoming more and more mature.
I hate it.
Case in point. I am changing Swee’Pea into her pajamas this evening and I sit her up to put on her pajama top. She is holding her plush kitty that is her bedtime companion and she is rubbing the soft animal against her chest.
At this point, she looks up at me, points to her three-year-old chest and says, “Kitty’s tickling my beauty marks!”
Beauty marks. Right.
Why do these things happen to me?

Yeah, at least Swee’Pea calls them beauty marks. There are some days that I am publicly embarrassed by Da’Gorgeouses and their new found obsession. There is no hesitation when they reach out and grab, pull on a shirt and yell out their discovery. AND they love to yell it out, especially on crowded days at Costco. I often bear the brunt of it, but my mom, my sister, the nurse and their teacher have all been accosted by their curiousity with everyone elses “B**B**S”! I’m just waiting for the day they attack some poor, unsuspecting stranger. *blush*

Ane asked me two days ago, “Mommy, when will I get to wear a bra?” She’s not even 5 yet. Geez, kid.

Hahaha. Beauty Marks. Too funny. My daughter would have said something far more descriptive and usually does it in public.

I can so relate. My 5 year old keeps asking me when she too may have “big breks” like me. I rarely correct her pronunciation as I fear she will say this in public around other people.

LOL I remember when Amie was that age. She said that she was someday going to have big breasts like me and a big butt like my sister. My mom was horrified, but my sister and I just cracked up.
I see that I missed their 3rd birthday while I was on vacation and all. So… Happy Belated Birthday to your two beautiful children.

I’m sorry but that is just hilarious. I can just imagine you staring at her, mouth agape, crickets chirping in the background.
HAR HAR HAR!!!

It is difficult enough having a boy. I can’t even imagine all the extra challenges of a girl.
