a little funny for you all

Our oldest daughter has a friend that is an ARNP (advanced registered nurse practioner) and she had a friend who has been an ostomate for years. The gal is in her early to mid 30's and is married with small kids and apparently runs around like most of us did when our kids were little sometimes with little on. Any this young ladies little boy told her, "mommy when I grow up I'm gonna marry a girl with a pretty bag cause your bag really isn't very pretty". Out of the mouths of babes huh? Apparently he thinks all women wear an appliance and a pouch on their tummies.

That's adorable!

Disease-free and medicine-free since surgery and very thankful to be healthy again.

It would have been more adorable if she said pouch, lol!!!
