Mommy Isn't Fat

I had a "kids say the darndest things" moment today.  As Josephine, Alexandra, and I lounged around in bed early this morning Josephine touched my belly and said "baby."  Uh...a few thoughts entered my mind, jumbling around:  "God Almighty, I hope she's wrong...wait a minute, how does she know baby's come from mommy's tummies?...Damnit, I need to start running again...I knew I shouldn't have had those last 5 bags of Cadbury mini-eggs." 

Anyway, I don't know where she got the idea that a baby can be in a tummy.  Either she's clairvoyant (which I hope she isn't because of the social stigma) or she's pointing out that mommy is getting a little chubby.  Regardless, it couldn't have been a better boost to starting my running routine again.  Tomorrow.  If not tomorrow then definitely Friday.  Saturday at the latest.

Update, 4/6/2014:  Josephine touched Marcus's belly and said "baby" this evening.  She's not clairvoyant!
