Kids say the darndest things!

Abbie was asking me why I kept my ponytails when I got my hair cut, so I was explaining to her how some people get sick with a thing called cancer and the medicine they take to get better makes their hair fall out and they don't have any hair left. So...

Mom: When people get their hair cut, if it's long enough, they can send it to a place where they make wigs for these people with cancer who don't have any hair.

Abbie: Ohhhhh...you mean like Uncle Guy?

Sorry, Guy. I don't think you look like a cancer patient...all these years I thought you were just bald. Of course, I have friends who do have cancer, and don't look it. I guess you can't judge a book by it's big old bald cover!
