Doctor’s Scale

Do you ever find yourself answering your child’s question with an answer you know they don’t understand, but you find to be very amusing?  If you don’t, you should try it sometime.

Today, I took Shea (my 4 yr old) to the dermatologist and while we were waiting, I discovered a scale, hiding in the corner.  I walked over and stood on it, and Shea asked, “Mom, why are you doing that?”  I replied,  as I grimaced at the numbers I saw below me, “I guess because I want to be really depressed today.”
