Kids Say the Funniest Things

We've been trying to explain to the kids about mommy being sick, trying to help prepare them for what lies ahead.  Lane is old enough to understand a fair amount but it's hard to judge just how much Morgan and Logan understand.  So, we explain in simple terms.  

Me:  "Mommy has a bad thing in her breast and the doctors are going to make it go away."
Lane:  "Oh."
Me:  "But it's kind of funny.  Not only does the bad thing go away, this goes away too."  And I pointed to my head.
Lane:  "Your memory?!"

Ha!  No kiddo, pregnancy took care of that!

Me:  "No, my hair!"

And 3 kiddos collapsed to the floor in a heap of giggles.  

Glad I can provide comic relief.

  4. What a nice way you presented it to your kids, met by Lane's hilarious response :) And then all of their response when you told them your hair :) Your family's shared sense of humor will help during this next stretch of time no doubt. Thinking of you!!
