Grand Prizes & Compliments?!

Husband came home with the news paper last night. It has the pictures of BabyGirl from the coloring contest she won. It also has a lot more information than we'd been able to glean from her. Turns out this was the local Farm Bureau's Ag in the Classroom poster contest. The kindergarten class was given a picture with a farmer and a barn on it & turned loose. BabyGirl not only won first place in her class, she won the Grand Prize out of all the K classes in the district (I think there are 6)!

I got dressed this morning and was getting ready to head out after milk and news papers. I walked into the living room wearing the dress Q.M. made and I altered for Inkling's Little Bro. '77's wedding. Husband looks up and says, "Wow! That dress makes you look big." Excuse me? BabyGirl looks up and says, "You look beautiful, Mommy!" I told her she needs to give her dad lessons in paying compliments. He stammered something about me looking really pregnant now, but we both ended up laughing too hard at the initial statement to get any further in our argument. Coming from anyone else it might bother me, but Husband's always thought pregnant women were "cute." He just needs to express it a little better next time!
