You are just right

A converstation my 4 year old and I had the other day.

Cristian: Mommy do you want some ice cream?

Me: No thank you, I am on a diet and I can't eat ice cream.

Cristian: Why are you on a diet mommy?

Me: Well I want to loose some weight, mommy is kind of fat.

Cristian: Mommy you are not fat, you are just right.

Oh how I love my babies and the things they say to me.
