kids say whatever..

one night, as i was working, i was doing my usual rounds on patients. usually, i walk in, introduced myself, check their pain level, passing gas, etc etc.. then i go about my fundal and lochia checks. Now, its best if family members aren't there cuz, if you dont know, im pressing, looking, and checking in a oh-so-wee-private area. i do my best to keep the modesty of the patient, yet its not the best atmosphere for, you know, mom, dad, grandpa, uncle, older brother.. you get the picture. so this one particular night, im doing my fundal check and see that the patient has her two little kids with her. Now, i can't really ask them (7 and 5 year old) to leave the room. So i cover her up the best i can and do my job. Well the 5 year old girl asks, "What are you doing to my mommy?" and before i could answer, her older 7 year old brother says to her, "Be quiet! You got goods too!" LOL.. i dont know what my facial expression was at that moment, but im pretty sure it was an inbetween of disbelief mixed with holding laughter or disgusted look. This kid was seven! SEVEN! oh man.. kids these days.
