Boys

A few nights ago I was shopping with SG & SG Jr.

While SG went to take care of a return, SG Jr and I hopped in line to pay. On the racks by the register were the usual tabloid mags, one of which was featuring "Celebs Without Makeup" (sort of like this) on the cover. SG Jr was saying how awful they all looked so I said, "well, that's a lesson you might as well learn now - when we women aren't made up we look pretty scary"

He responded with, "You're not wearing any make up and you look good" I pointed out that I was, in fact, wearing make up - but how sweet for him to say that. Yep, definitely a kid who takes after his dad. Smooth.

I was reminded of that this morning when I called SG and he said he and a friend were just talking about me. I asked what the specific subject was.

SG: "how you don't wear any makeup and you still look good"
Me: "I do too wear makeup"
SG: "well, not very much"

heh - smooth.....

and they both saw me without anything on my face when we took our Sedona trip so they know the real deal.

Sweet little compliments (just believable enough to work) one of the many things I love about those boys.

Hmm, how old is SG Jr? (not for me of course) :)

Only 12, I'm afraid - but he is well on his way to being quite a suave young man.

And cute, too.
