More musings of a three year old....

Hannah was sitting in the car and announced, "Mom, I ate too much candy." This, in and of itself, is not unusual because Hannah often says this after she has had some sort of treat. Last Christmas Hannah learned the hard way that too many treats (Hershey's Kisses in her case) can lead to very sore tummies so now she is very wary of eating too much candy. Well, I couldn't remember giving Hannah candy or anything, but I thought I might have forgotten so I just asked, "Why? Are you feeling sick?" Hannah said "No, but I ate candy yesterday and if I eat too much I will get big and fat and the people will say (in a deep, husky voice) 'Oh no, here comes the big fat lady.'"

After laughing for about 5 minutes, I made Hannah promise not to call people big and fat and made a mental note to myself to cut back on the treats.
