Pigtails

James' compliments for me are few and far between. But recently, I decided to fix my hair in pigtails for the day - when James saw me he said in all sincerity, "Mom, you look beautiful." He was struck with the magnanamous beauty of my Pippi Longstocking look - who can blame him. (I have a hunch that I simply reminded him of his darling friend Mia - who does occasionally wear her hair this way).

That is so funny! Carly gives out compliments very sparingly, also. They do this little thing in our Primary where if something is good they give a thumbs up and if it's bad they give a thumbs down. The other day I got dressed (which took me at least an hour) and when I finally came out of the bedroom Carly said, "Thumbs down, Mom." Thanks, Carly. But when she does give me a compliment, it's always heartfelt.

James is actually a fashion maven. He comments on the outfits women wear on tv. He once said to me just before his birthday party..."Grammy are you really going to wear THAT?" And even yesterday when I got a new dress and Angie and I were somewhat undecided about it, decided to go to the expert. James looked...Put his hand cupped in a whispering comment towards his uncle...and uttered, "What is that?" I'm sending the dress back
