"Mom," my daughter said when she came home from school. "I'm perfect!"
I looked at her. "Well, that's debatable."
"But I am," she insisted. "I was measured in class, and all of my proportions are the exact measurement of the golden ratio." (She has been studying DaVinci's Vetruvian man and the golden ratio in her gifted math class.)
"That's nice," I said, unimpressed.
"Only two of us in the class were perfect. I was one of them."
She was obviously very proud of this little revelation. "Okay," I said. "Did they measure your personality? Is that perfect?"
Without missing a beat, she said, "Mom, you know I'm the perfect drama queen!"
Yes. So I guess it's official. My daughter is perfect in every way. Ha!
I hope you are writing all this down . . . it would make a GREAT book!!
ReplyDeleteIt's all written right here. Maybe someday I'll do the book to blog thing. Or maybe some publisher will contact me with a book contract for it. LOL!
DeleteFunny..I'm glad she is confident. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's one thing she's not short of - self confidence! LOL!
DeleteSherry, this is such a good way for you to keep a journal.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had this when my son was younger.
I love technology!
DeleteLOL! Hilarious, what a character! (=
ReplyDeleteThat she is!
Deletehaha you can argue with that logic.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant, isn't she?
DeleteThis idea of perfection sets up a lot of expectations. Just wait til the teen years come. Toss in a reality tale or two just to balance it off.
ReplyDeleteThe teen years scare me! They're just around the corner!
DeleteYour stories are so adorable. Don't ever stop blogging!
ReplyDeleteLove,

ReplyDeleteHahaha! It isn't easy. LOL!
DeleteThis story is so adorably cute. I like her confidence. And I can imagine all these combined given her love for dancing and artistic genes, she's a star :)
ReplyDeleteShe certainly is a star. If she keeps working hard, I'm sure she'll go far in life!
Delete:-) I always say that children should start out with a lot of confidence, and that girl has it! Good for her!
