Cottage cheese is meant for eating not for thighs!

So…
I was swimming with my kids in the pool and as I was drying my daughter she says to me…
” Mommy, are my thighs going to be bumpy like yours when I get old?”
I just about passed out, considering I do a bazillion leg lifts a day and that comment was sooo friggin uncool.
However… after I revived myself and peeled my ass off the floor, I said to her, “yes… you too will have a fat ass and bumpy thighs.” No I didn’t… kidding.
I did say,
” Sophie… here is the deal. we are all born with certain body types. Some people have long legs some have small boobs, some are really really skinny, some people are rounder. That’s a fact of life.”
I then said ”What’s important is that you look at your body in the mirror and know that it is yours for the rest of your life. You can do good things for it, like eat healthy stuff.
You can get your body moving, like running around a lot.
And… if you are not nice to your body, then your thighs will have more bumps.
End of story.”
She then said…
“Do we have any ice cream?” 
I just walked out, didn’t answer and did 50 leg lifts while I organized a drawer.
Gotta love my 6 year old!
