probably had to be there...

The totes of diaper fabric were sitting on the floor

and on the top of one of the boxes,

visible through the clear lid,

was a scrap of fabric from suits I'd made for the girls.

I'd kept it, thinking it would be good 

for the side panels of the training pants

I designed in my head

but never got around to making.

Lexi looked at it and said, "My suit's in there."

Then she turned to me,

scrunched up her face and growled, 

"Why did you put my swimming suit in that box?!"

I opened the box and handed her the scrap

and said, "Here, try it on."

The look on her face was priceless.

She moaned, "o-ohh. It's broken."

oops - hadn't expected that...

I quickly showed her that her suit was

 in fact

not broken.

The boys and I laughed for a full minute.

Definitely one of those times

you wish you had a camera rolling!
