Possibly indecent

Lucy's very interested in bodies at the moment. And she's started noticing differences between hers and mine. So conversations like the following are becoming more and more common.

Lucy: "Hey Mom, why do you have hair in your pits?"
Me: "Well, remember when you get older how you'll grow breasts? You'll grow hair in your pits at the same time."
Lucy (now totally redirected to breasts): "Your breasts are big!"
Me: "Uh huh."
Lucy (looking down her shirt): "But Mom! Mine are only as big as chocolate chips! They'll never grow bigger!" (breaks down into tears)
Me (trying not to laugh): "Oh, don't worry honey, they will ..."

The chocolate chips part cracked me up.
