GIRL TALK

I was busy making lunch yesterday while the boys played Star Wars guys in the play room and the girls sat on the island in the kitchen anxiously awaiting the homemade macaroni and cheese I was making. As I was finishing up getting all ingredients transferred into a baking dish, I overheard a very interesting conversation going on between these two girls.

The topic of that conversation?

Boobs.

Yes, you heard me right, Ava was talking to Olivia about boobs. More specifically how big each of theirs would turn out to be some day.

Ava: "Olivia, where are your boobs?"

Olivia points to the correct area and looks back up at Ava.

Ava: "Good girl! Now Olivia, when you get older you are going to have small boobs."

Olivia looks down at her chest area, then once again looks back up at Ava. This time with a confused look on her face.

Ava: "You will have small boobs Olivia, and I will have have big boobs."

Fortunately Olivia is only 2, and this revelation of Ava's simply did not phase her. I can only imagine how this conversation would have played out 5 years from now.

Anyway......

This is where I found myself needing to step into the conversation simply to find out where in the heck she came up with all this boob talk.

Mom: "Ava, what makes you say that?"

Ava: "I don't know, I just thought of it."

Mom: "How do you know you will have bigger boobs than Olivia?"

Ava: "Because I have bigger pink things than she does."

I am assuming she was speaking of her areola's. A small part of me wanted to ask her to point to her "pink things" so that I could confirm my suspicions, but I decided it would be best not to delve into this conversation any more. So I left it at that and got back to making my macaroni and cheese.

Just when you think you have heard it all.
