Conversation with my grandson

Picture this: I am in the kitchen making lunch for my grandson and I when he pipes up and says: "Nana, I don't want to be fat."

Me: "I know. Nana is trying to lose weight."

Luke: "NOOOOO, Nana! I like you the way you are! You're so warm and cozy!~

I then commenced to explain to him that fat is not a nice word and that overweight sounds a lot nicer. Don't think it sunk in lol. Ah, life through the eyes of a child. This kid cracks me up. Little stinker. So hard to believe he is three already! Where does time go?

I have actually lost about 8 pounds, which I needed to lose, but I do not recommend doing it this way. I hugged my nephews and told them thank you. They told us Merry CHRISTmas and left. It was just that quick. When I opened the boxes, there were wrapped gifts. I did not have one gift under our tree for either of ...
