  2. OMG, Tamar! The things kids say! They are so funny! I was once substitute teaching a 5th grade class (long before I had kids) and one boy asked me if I was having a baby, when I replied with an emphatic "No!", the girl standing with him said, "See I told you she was pregnant." He looked me up and down and said, "Well, if I were you then, I would get rid of that dress." You bet I never wore that dress again! hahahahha.
