The way it should be

Sometimes I think about the thoughts of other Mums when our children are playing together.

Logically
, I know that other Mum's think their child is the cutest, the smartest, the funniest, the most adorable and the most brilliant. That is the way it should be.

However, I just can not fathom how someone could think their child is cuter, smarter, funnier, more adorable or more brilliant than Champ. I just can. not. see. how. And that is the way it should be.

  1. Ha ha - ain't that the truth! I think 60% of the conversation between me and DH is about how AMAZING our son is. THE AMAZINGEST. EVER.

    I was recently out with some other moms, and one of the little boys was goofing around. I'm sure he's a lovely child, but he is not what I would call... cute. :/ Anyway, the mom was clearly looking at him with stars in her eyes and said with a proud mama smile, "Oh, aren't you just adorable!"

    So yeah, I guess that *is* the way it should be.

  2. Well, actually, even though we wouldn't trade Zo for any other child in the world, my husband and I are more likely to talk about how EASY and well-behaved everyone else's children are than about how brilliant and cute ours is (though of course, she is). I guess it's still a strange point of pride.

  3. But MINE are the cutest, they are really. That's why I don't post photos of them, gets everyone dead jealous...
