Mom's a Beauty Queen

Dimpled Child drew this picture for me yesterday and with a big eyed expression said, "Mom, this is a picture of you!". I replied, "Umm, thanks it's really nice Dimpled Child". As I studied it though, I thought that maybe he is really giving me a compliment. Aside from the freakishly large head, note the legs and arms; they are stick thin, I'm lovin that. From what I can tell, I cannot detect a butt or stomach, which means they are so small that they cannot be detected; no problem with that either. I also have BIG beautiful eyes and a big smile (which he probably doesn't see enough of). It's the thought that counts. So, the next time your child finger paints with his diaper contents or scratches pictures into your oak dinner table, remember, he or she is merely saying, "Mom, I love you".
