I am a talented mom

Lucy and her friend Jennifer are eating lunch, and talking about how great the food is.
Lucy says "My mom makes the best noodle soup." Jennifer says "well my mom can't make soup, but she can cook other stuff. Her best thing to make is fried chicken!"

Now, my Lucy may very well be the biggest fan of fried chicken since Colonel Sanders. The kid eats her weight on fried chicken, she asks for it several times a week, she loves the stuff!
Hearing that Jennifer's mom can make it set her back for a minute. She looked at me with a very thoughtful face, thinking before she replied
"Well.... my mom doesn't know how to make fried chicken. But she caaan BUY IT!"

That's right baby!

Kind of reminds me of the time Jacob came home from Sunday school and decided he wanted to "build me up" and compliment my strengths. He sat down and explained what he was going to do, and I said okay. Lay it on me. I was kind of excited to hear what my 7 yo thought of me!
"Momma, you are reallly good at shopping," he says. "You go to good stores."
Thanks, darling. :-P
