Default 2007 Precedent blowing white smoke

So I have been having some issues with my cart, it has began to stall on hills so I cleaned the carb ( some gunk was in the bowl) since I was servicing I decided to install a new air filter (oem) new spark plug and changed the oil, unfortunately my 7 year old son decided to help and overfilled the engine with oil without me knowing. Now it blows white smoke, I drained the oil, looked kinda milky and refilled it to the proper level. Only ran it for a few minutes overfilled.... will the oil in the exhaust burn off with time or did I do damage and need to take it to the shop?

Thanks for any advice!

No it should burn off eventually. I am however a little concerned with the term "milky" Milky oil is a sure sign of moisture and how that got in there I have not a clue

I'm pretty sure it was just oil he added, and I hope that the milky ness was just due to oil agitation. I did see small bubbles in the oil on the dipstick. So I'm going to annoy my neighbors and smoke out the neighborhood for a few days while I burn off the oil in the exhaust system . Glad to hear there shouldn't be any lasting damage. Thank you for your replies and I'll keep you posted if things change.
