a sweet qotd

Madeleine and I were in a clothing store, and I was looking through shirts. Maddie was carrying around her little baggie of cereal and raisins, and she was chomping away and looking around. Every now and then she'd say something. There was a long pause while she was eating some more cereal and looking around at everything. Then she very thoughtfully (and loudly) said, "Mommy, you are a very beautiful lady." A lady a little younger than myself was standing next to me looking at similar shirts. She about fell over when she heard Maddie's comment. She looked up at me, put her hand to her heart and said dramatically, "Ohh! THAT is the most adorable thing I've ever heard." I thought it was very sweet.
