Welcome to the Jungle

So today my sweet little six (6) year old wanted to measure how tall he was, standing next to me. He lines himself up, gasps, then falls onto the ground like he just passed out!

Me: What's that all about Joey (I asked slightly confused)
Jo: I'm as tall as your boobs! (He shrieks in horror)

What a tragedy for the young boy who realizes he is hug level, and eye level with his momma's boobs; knowing, that waiting for the next growth spurt is going to feel like an eternity! haha! I've never had to experience this with the older boy, well, because, no one was there to make fun of him nor gag (with barfing noises and all) when his little face was smashed lovingly to his momma's chest.

After several minutes of contemplation:

Jo: Mom! (Tugging on my shirt frantically)
Me: Yes Jo (Cause I know he's thought this out and has some kind of crazy comment to make!)
Jo: You didn't birth me! (And that some how lessons the disgust of his booby height head!)
Me: Yes I did! And I nursed you! (I laughed, in a "I gotcha sucka" mommy kinda way)

Jo's face is covered with horror and disgust and I can't help to think, (1) mom - (0) child!! lol!!  You know we gotta give their thinkers a little twisting from time to time, as we all know, they grow up into teenagers and make our brains spin!!

So after more minutes of contemplation:

Jo: Mom, you're wrong, I was born in the jungle!
Me:  Touché!!  (I couldn't agree more!!)
