Reasons #475 and #476 Why Kids are Awesome

#475

Yesterday, I was just starting to curl my hair.  I had a couple of rollers in and the rest was a mess.  I hadn't even begun to put make-up on.  Paige was watching me and after a minute said, "Oh, Mommy!  You are so beautiful, Mommy!"  Made. My. Day.  I smiled and gave her a hug and told her "Thank You" a million times over.  Then she asked, "Mommy, are you a Princess?"  I looked at her very seriously and said "Yes, Paigie.  I am."  (Because I am, you know. :)) And then she responded, "Ooooohhhhhh.  But we can't tell anybody, can we?"  And even though we really can tell other people, she's really into secrets right now.  So I told her it could just be our little secret.  I'm pretty sure if most people had seen me right then, they wouldn't have believed anyway. :)  But I'm so thankful for children who can see past the outward appearance and can look right into your heart.

They're creative.


'Nuff Said. :)

(I'm pretty sure this was Ian's work.  And I'm pretty sure he's going to have to fix it when he gets home from school.  But it gave me a good laugh this morning. :))
