From the mouth of babes

We had a family reunion for Jim's side of the family over the 4th of July weekend. Several of the clan had congregated in the hotel room to wait for Jim's mom and Grandma to arrive. Great grandma hadn't yet met Jim-Jim, so I rushed to nurse the boy so great grandma could spend as much time doting on him as she wished. Anyone who has breast-fed knows that this is a process that can't be rushed, but I sure tried. While great grandma was cuddling Jim-Jim, he became very fussy due to my failed attempt at getting him to finish quickly. I told everyone that he wasn't done eating and Carter, his sweet little 4-year-old cousin, looked me in the eye in all her innocence and said, "Aunt Kara, do you not have any more milk in your nipples?" Her candidness at this biological function left me speechless! What will she come up with next???
