There are moments of being a mother which shine out above all others because of the awe and wonder in an adoring child's heart as they consider their mother. I believe I had one of these this evening:
Lily: "Mom, how does ice cream help you?"
Mom: "It helps you to get bigger buns."
Lily: (after thinking and checking) "I don't think it's working on me!"
Ella: "But it's working on Mom!"
I know, I set myself up for these moments of glory.
There was actually a lengthy conversation afterward because, of course, the kids took me a little too seriously. The cost of a joke.

Hi Jenn
That is a funny story, I can totally hear Brandon (my oldest, 6 yrs) saying something like that.
