Me (bummin' around with Jessie): Do you still have those scars on your toes from when you were a baby? You know ... because a few strands of my hair were stuck in the footy of your PJ's and got wrapped around them too tightly?
Jessie (bummin' around with me): Yep, they're right there.
Me: Hmmm ... Sure enough!
Silence.
Me: Did you know I also dropped you in your car seat when you were a baby?
Silence.
Me: And there was of course that curling iron accident when it fell off the counter and landed on your chubby little bare leg.
Blank stare.
Jessie: And I still turned out the best of all three kids!!
Chuckle, cough, snort ...
Don't ya' just love teenagers?
I do. They may be the most entertaining people in the whole world.
