faire le dessin!

paul and i have been playing on the computer a lot lately. well, really, he plays and tells me what to do. whatever. we both have a grand ol' time. mr and mme jeanson usually just leave us alone, unless paul's gotta go take a bath or work on his homework or eat.

tonight while paul and i were doing some sort of christmas game, mme jeanson pops her head in and just sort of laughs at us (this little boy's sitting on my lap and we're both SO FOCUSED on getting every bulb lit on the virtual christmas tree, so we must look pretty funny). i smile back and she goes, "you're like the perfect big sister." i laughed and made some joke (because i don't take compliments well), and she chuckled and went back to her work.

it was probably a bit sarcastic, but it was the best compliment i've gotten in a while (and someone told me i looked like miss america today, too!). yeah, i'm gonna miss this little family when i leave. i mean, look at the kid...he's a frickin baller.
