That's My Boy

I swear this conversation is true. Sam was not provoked or prompted in any way.

So we are driving home last night. Out of the blue Sam says, "Mama, I like you more than Woo." (This is a high compliment; Woo, also known as Woo-Tee or Blue Woo Number 2, is his blue blanket. I won't even say 'favorite' blanket because there has never been another.)

"Thank you. I'm honored."

"I like you more than ice cream."

"Thank you. I'm flattered. What don't you like?" I ask.

"Grass (?), towns (??), rainbows (???), George Bush."
