Evan Comments on Size

Yesterday afternoon, Evan and I went thrifting with my up-North BFF, Shana, whom Evan calls "Yellow Mama" (though we've never figured out quite why).

While we were combing the racks at Goodwill, Evan happened to notice a certain individual. What follows is an accurate approximation of his commentary:

Evan: Mom, Mom, why that person shopping here?

Me, looking around: What person, Evan?

Evan: That person, that BIIIIIG person over there.... he is so BIG!

Me, noticing a very rotund woman browsing the plus-size sweaters: Evan....

Evan: He can't shop here... he is too BIIIIG to fit in this shop!

Me: Evan, anyone of any size can shop at Goodwill...

Evan: But, no, he is too BIG for this shop! No clothes here will fit him!

Me: Yes, Evan, I'm sure she will find some clothes. Goodwill has clothes for all sizes of people, and that's why people shop here.

It could've gone on, had the sofa section not caught his eye. We made a beeline for that area.
