I can see we're going to have to work on this self-esteem thing...

Today, as I sat down with my three-year-old (hereafter known as the Pollywog) to lunch:

Pollywog: Father, we thank you for this food, and for uncles and auntles and cousins too, amen.
Me: Very nice.
Pollywog: [brightly] Everyone thinks I'm wonderful!
Me: [laughing, thinking this must be something a grandparent said to him] Who told you that?
Pollywog: I did.

In other news, I fail at blogging. I'll try to remedy that soon -- AFTER I clean up the utter disaster that is my house, and put up some of these Christmas decorations I've got lying around.

Pollywog is adorable and self esteem seems to be firmly entrenched! don't change a thing!

Sigh . . . and then Pollywog grew up to be Maggie. ;p

I was a very self-involved child. What I didn't have in stature, I made up for with ego.

Pollywog *is* wonderful!

My daughter told me years ago that she found nothing more interesting than her own mind. :)
