Shiny Hair

Sophia was playing her mom's hair and remarked, "Mom, you have really shiny hair."

Happy with the compliment, Deborah replied, "Thank you, Sophia."

Then Sophia added, "It's so shiny because you're really old Mom."

(Sophia should have quit while she was ahead.)

Noah's Compliment

Compliment from Noah: "You are as beautiful as a kitten next to a rose bush!"

Soup Standards

We were walking in Macey's and Brian bought Melissa and Cassey some soup to eat while they walked around. Brian took a sip.
Brian: "This isn't very good."
Melissa: "This is good soup, Dad. You've just been ruined because you have tried Mom's."

10 Year Old Compliments

Deborah was making peanut butter bars yesterday with Seth and Sophia. Seth's commented, "Mom, these start out kind of a mess and turn into something sweet. ..kinda like you!" 10 year old boy compliments are the best!

Like a Puppy

Cassey was cleaning the kitchen and got to the point she didn't really know what to do anymore. She said to Melissa, "I am like a confused puppy... Except I am not a puppy."

Buying Kisses

Deborah was trying to get our youngest daughter to give her a kiss, but Sophia was far too busy to be interrupted to stop playing.  

After several attempts, including a couple of bribes, Sophia finally turned to her Mom and in an exasperated voice said, "Mom, I'm NOT a kiss store.". 

Apparently her kisses can't be bought.
