Katie was telling me that Eddie’s mom came into Computer Lab today. She said, “It was fair because Eddie was sick for like 2 weeks so getting to have his mom in school was totally fair.”
My mind is on swine flu these days, so I asked her what he was sick with.
Katie’s mind has clearly been elsewhere. She shrugged and said, “Oh… I don’t know. Maybe breast cancer.”
Yikes.
Last night at dinner, the girls and I were talking about how they might get to go to ASP after school when I do the 3Day in October. We’ve talked about the 3Day and why I’m doing it several times. So it caught me off guard when Katie’s mouth dropped open and her eyes bugged out of her head and she asked, “YOU HAVE BREAST CANCER???!”
Maggie assured her I didn’t, rolled her eyes dramatically, and then looked at me and said, “Right, mom?”
We talked about the fact that I DON’T have breast cancer, what it is, and more. Then Katie wanted to know WHEN I would get breast cancer. She agreed when I said that I hoped I wouldn’t ever get it, but her reasoning is that I’d look really silly without boobies.
