"You're just heavy."

Watching my nieces today...
The kids are playing on a pogo stick and I decide to give it a try.  
Andrew says, "Jess, that's weighted for kids." 
Tearony, "Yeah it's for like 80 pounds or less."
Me, "Oh, well I'm about 100 pounds over the weight limit so that's probably a bad idea."
Tearony's eyes get big as I tell her I weigh 180 pounds.
Me, "Go ahead and say it Tearony, say "You're a big woman Jesse." (this is what her sister used to say to me when she was young)
Tearony looks and me and holds her hands up a bit and says, "You are not a big woman, you are just heavy." 

: )  This made me smile.
