While putting on eyeshadow this morning:

"Mom, that eye make-up sure makes you look stylish. You are so beautiful. And gorgeous!" - Braxton

Braxton has always been so good at making me feel good about myself. I remember when he was 18 months old and we were on vacation in Florida, we had walked past a model doing a photo shoot at this historical building and I watched for a moment, totally taken back by her beauty. Walking away from her I felt so ugly. And then my sweet toddler looks up at me from his stroller and says, "Mama, you are so pretty."
