prettier

A couple of days ago, Josh and I were huddled over the iPad.  I had just let him download an app or something.  I think he was so giddy with happiness that he couldn't help but say:

"Mommy, you may not be the prettiest mommy, but you're the BEST mommy!"

YOUCH!  Seriously, kid?!  What do I say?  How do I respond to that?  Clearly, the obvious response is, "Who is prettier than mommy?!"

The verdict is still out.  He wouldn't respond.  I know he was thinking of someone; I could see it in his eyes and that sly little smile!  Darn kid.
