Funny thing happened at work today.

A member of my staff went on maternity leave a month ago, and gave birth a week later to a beautiful baby girl.

She came in today for a visit and to introduce us to her new daughter.

I was in a room with a patient when she arrived at the clinic, so I didn't know she was here. I finished with the patient and went to the staff office. She was in there talking with my other assistant and breast-feeding her baby.

"Whoops! Sorry!" I said, turning away.

She laughed and said it was okay.

Without thinking, I said: "When you're done, I'd like to take a look..."

I thought frantically for a second, then added:

"...at the BABY!"

Everyone busted out laughing. I thought my scheduler was going to burst at the seams...
