On Wednesday it was hot. Like the pit of Hades hot, frying eggs on the sidewalk, don't even look at me because it just makes me sweat kind of hot. So hot that I considered going sans bra for a bit. That didn't come to pass -- we are involved in a number of family activities, after all -- but you can bet your over-the-shoulder-boulder-holders that I whipped that joker off as soon as we got home.
After another day of running here, there, and everywhere, when we got in the door, I just dropped our stuff, sat down, unsnapped, and let the girls breathe. I left the bra sitting on the table while I sorted through the mail and the other detritus that had accumulated over the past few days.
Morgan, in one of her many laps around the house, rolled on through the room, stopping short when she saw my bra keeping me company.
"Whoa!" she said, eyeing the upright cups. "Is that your bra? That's really big. I mean those things right there. Those round parts. They're really big. Kind of like two hats attached together, kind of like a visor. Or like a really big hat. Yeah, like a really big hat. Can I watch a show?"
I'm sporting a pretty average size Wacoal bra, but to her 4 year old eyes, must have looked like this:
I need to count my blessings that she just caught sight of my bra and not my underwear.

Wonderful sentiment! Took the girls out for a breather over here as well... dang this heat.
ReplyDeleteJust when I thought it couldn't get any funnier than the "And then...and than...and then," you did it again! Cracking up over here...I need to show my bras to some children who could appreciate its bigness. TEEHEE! STAY COOL, girlie.
ReplyDeleteI always learn a new word when I read your blog. Today it's "detritus." :)
ReplyDeleteMy "one-bud boob/one-flat boob" 10 year old still thinks my barely Bs are bountiful. By next year, she'll realize that they're not. :)
Love your ending! LOL
Just read your blog for the first time. I just love what comes out of a child's mouth. It is so innocent and so honest. It would be fun to see the world through their eyes just for a few mmoments out of the day!
