My self esteem (or lack there of....)

Melanie has a way with words lately. It started with our skin. I was putting my moisturizer on one morning last week, and she came in and asked why I was putting that white stuff on my face. I told her it was because my skin was older than hers and I needed to put lotion on to make my face smooth. Well, now every morning when I put it on, she comes in an says, "Mine and Meredith's skin is young and smooth. Yours is just old." Awesome. She also did that with our hair....."I have the most beautiful hair in our house Mommy. Yours is kind of icky." Fantastic. Then, the other night, she came up and asked, "When I get older, will I get BIG hands like you?" I thought that was cute, until she asked me, "When I get older, will I get a BIG booty like you?" Thanks a lot, Mel. Then, this morning, as I am getting dressed, she came up to me and said, "Meredith and I have such cute, nice clothes. Your clothes aren't cute." Aren't kids great???? :)
