Quote of the Day

I called Henry after Matthew picked him up from school to ask him about his day.

"Mommy, do you know who mine other best friend is?"

"Who?"

"Well, [Classmate X] is not my best friend, but the big girls ARE my best friend."

"Oh," I said. "They're really nice to you?"

"Yeah," he said. Then, in a quieter voice, "Because I'm really cute."

I laughed out loud and told him that in fact I think he's the cutest little thing in the whole wide world.

"Yeah," he said, quite happy to agree.
