So the other day my daughter was getting dressed after her bath and she looked down and exclaimed proudly, "I have nipples!" She said it like she just realized it. Then she looked at me and said, " I have nipples, and you have
mama's {our codeword for boobs and nursing}."
"Yep." I said.
"I used to suck on your mama's when I was a baby." She said.
"Yes you did." I said. Then I asked her, "Did you like it?"
"
Mmmm -
hmmmm." She said with a grin.
"Do you remember it?" I asked.
"
Mmmm -
hmmmm."
"What did it taste like?" I asked her.
Stopping to give it some careful consideration, she said, "...........
STRAAAAAAAWBERRIES!!!" with a huge smile on her face!
How great is that?! But the totally cool thing is that strawberries were and still are her all-time favorite food. What a huge compliment coming from her. I love to know that she equates nursing with the sweetest, happiest food/feeling she knows :)
