No Self-Esteem Issues Here

Oh yes, I have a blog...we've been busy with all things Christmas and a few not-so-festive things like the stomach bug so my blogging has been neglected.

In the past month Noelle has made 2 comments that really capture her current attitude - the word 'princess' comes to mind.

1) We wrote letters to Santa Claus this year.  Not that the girls believe in Santa but it seemed like a festive thing to do and Noelle got to practice her letter writing.  I told her that one of the things she needed to include in her letter was a rating of herself.  She had to tell Santa, on a scale of 1-10, 10 being the best, how good she was this year.  She readily replied, "Oh, I'm a 10!"

2)  I had a parent-teacher conference a few weeks ago and before I left for school I asked Noelle what I should expect her teacher to tell me.  She confidently said "She'll say, 'Noelle's awesome.' and that will be the end."
