I feel pretty, oh, so pretty...

So...this is me, in case you were wondering what I looked like. ;-) Aren't I pretty? I feel pretty, oh, so pretty...



E -(coming to show me his drawing) "I drew a picture of you. I figure it is you in the morning....you have your felted slippers on"
Me - "Mmmm, yes...I see" (feeling somewhat dismayed by my pig-like nose in the drawing, the messy hair not even registering as it is pretty much an accurate morning description...O.K, it always looks like that - hair is not a priority in our house)
E - "You have your arms out ready to give me my hug"
Me - "Ooh, you're right, I do...I see that now" (thinking aawww, you are forgiven for the pig-like nose...maybe pig-like nose is rather beautiful to youngest son who wants only to hug me every morning to start our day off nicely)
E - "...and you have big lips...cuz you are about to kiss me"
Me -"Ha ha...I will kiss you now too, you monkey" (Aaawww, does this kid know how to work it or what?)

You got it going on there, girl! Don't you love it when you receive portraits from your sons? So sweet of E to accentuate your best features... arms for hugging and lips for kissing.
