For some reason, I seem to recall smiling at an American Express ad involving Tina Fey.
She had been asked her biggest accomplishment and she said, "my daughter says please and thank you".
I thought it was rather cute.
And I do - to an extent - agree with her.
Polite kids are a worthy goal.
I love that at Eva's last parent-teacher meeting, the teacher told us that Eva might have trouble keeping her ass in her chair, but she is always polite.
And I loved it last night when Addie - at 21 months - said, "merci de l'eau, mama" when I gave her a sippy cup of water.
They may be a bit loud...a bit rambunctious...their noses may run constantly, and they may fart a lot. We're working on all that.
But dammit, they're polite!

I can confirm: your kids are polite and I don't find them too boogery or farty. So, that's all good.
