Okay this is too much information, but I just have to share this funny story.

SO... my oldest daughter who is 9, is obsessed with boobs. She pokes at mine all the time. I tell her that she needs to respect people's space and not touch people if they ask not to be touched. Her response is usually a giggly " But I like boobs".

So the other night we were all downstairs watching a movie and she asked to sit on my lap and cuddle and sure enough she pokes my boob. I tell her " That is it, I am going to crochet you a little boob on a keychain so that whenever you get the urge to poke mine again, you can just squeeze the heck out of the one I made you"

So I made her a boob on a keychain. I have to say as weird as this all sounds, it was a great idea I had!

Adorable! I can think of a few guy friends who wouldn't mind having some of these to fiddle with (not as good as the real thing, I'm assuming, but cute and fun none-the-less).

That's a cute story my youngest god daughter Lucy(whose in the pic with me) has a habit of hitting me in the rear, whenever she does that in front of her little brother (my only godson, I have 5 god daughter's) he'll stand in front of her and shout 'no hit momma dee on her butt!' so yeah cute things kids will do and say. I love your story and how you fixed it in the end, the keychain is too cute.
