Oh, Sweet Baby!

Little C: Am I anything the same compared to what I was when I was little?

Mama: Oh. Yes. You are the same but bigger than when you were little.

Little C: No. I mean, is any part of my body the same as when I was little?

Mama: Oh. That. Just your eyes, Dear.

Little C: What about the rest of me?

Mama: All bigger.

Little C: (Twisted consternation across his face. Clearly, not enough of an answer.)

Mama: (Searching for satisfactory ending to discussion.) Do you feel different than when you were a baby?

Little C: How would I know? I forgot what I felt like as a baby.

Mama: Darling One, I will never, ever forget what you felt like as a baby. (SMOOCH)
