Its Time For a Chocoholic Intervention

So I was sitting on a bench at the park yesterday watching Nicholas in the sand, when this cute little girl came and sat right next to me. She was probably 5-6 years old, that awesome age where you can almost see in their faces exactly what they are thinking. Anyway, me in my black leggings and t-shirt with a sizeable belly sported underneath it was pretty obvious why she was staring so intently at me. For about 20 seconds she alternated looking at my face and my belly, back and forth, until finally she could contain it no longer and she said,

"What's that under your tummy?"
"It's a baby", I said.

...long pause...

"Nope!..." she said
long pause on my part, not sure how to reply.... then she continued,
"I think it's a ball"

I smiled, then said, "yes, I know it's pretty round like a ball, huh?"
Another pause, still not convinced of my explanantions, she replied, "You must eat too much chocolate!"

How wise, the kids these days :)
