Whether you are raising boys or girls, kids can be hilarious. And even though they aren't my kids, hearing about the silly stuff my sister's kids say and do cracks me up every time!

My niece is always a source of laughter in our family. She is adorable and outgoing and makes nutty birthday wish lists! But apparently she is also trying to grow up before her time. Out of the blue the other night I got a great text message from my sister telling me,

OMG Jane wants a bra"

I just about cried laughing! And of course wanted to know what would possess my 8-year-old, skinny beyond belief niece to want a bra that she clearly does not need. The response?

Because I want one."

That's it. Her only reason. Hilarious! But after all the laughing and jokes about how I'll be buying my niece nothing but bras for Christmas, I thought about where she even got the idea that she needed a bra. I imagine someone she goes to school with now wears a bra, so she wanted one too. It seemed like the only thing that made sense.

But again I don't have kids, I just live vicariously through my sister at the moment. So moms have you had a similar experience with your daughter? Did your little girl suddenly decide she needed a bra for one crazy reason or another? Or did you have to convince her to wear one?
