Oh, the things they say...

Kai: Mama, do you have a baby in your belly again?

Me: (wearing Ruby in my new Boba baby carrier, straps cinched tight, with plenty of mushy fat spilling over) No, Kai, I don't have a baby in my belly.

Kai: Are you sure? I'd like a baby brother now.

Me: Nope, I'm positive. No baby in this belly.

Kai: Well, it looks like you have one with all of that fat in your belly. It looks like my baby brother is just about to come out!

I laughed out loud and patted my little pooch and felt good remembering what this leftover mush kept so safe and sound for all of the months before Ruby came out. It doesn't bother me that it is still keeping me company. To say thank you, I went and fed it a cookie.
