Worlds I never want to hear again

Apr 09, 2009

This morning I woke up to give the baby a bottle and my 5 year old woke up and crawled into bed with my hubby and me.  I climbed back in bed and my son said in the sweetest voice that I had a big body. I must weigh one hundred million pounds.  I asked him why he would say that and he said because I had a big, fat, round body.  I burst into tears.  This is like the 3rd time in the last few months that he has made a comment like this.  Each time it hurts so deep.  It's not his fault.  He is just a kid and he doesn't mean it maliciously.  He is simply stating facts.  And it is the truth.  I am so glad that I am doing something about this so he never has to say those things again and my younger son will never remember me like this.  I never want my kids to be embarassed of me because of my weight.  They may be embarassed for other reasons, but not because of my weight.
