Conversations with Corbin

WHEN: Thursday

WHERE: Dressing Room at clothing store

SCENE: I had just put on a blue peasant top.

CONVERSATION:

CORBIN: Mommy I really like that shirt. It's blue and that is my favorite color.

ME: I don't think I'm going to buy it.

CORBIN: Why?

ME: I think it makes me look fat.

CORBIN: You know Mommy, I think you are right. That shirt does make you look fat.

(Hysterical laughing coming from dressing room next to us)

ME: Well then I won't buy it. Thank you Corbin.

CORBIN: You're welcome Mommy. But Mommy, what does fat mean?
