Eli:  Mommy who is the best boy in the whole wide world?

Me:  Hummmm…Who is the best Mommy in the whole wide world?

Eli:  Jake, Ben and Joe's Mommy.

Me:  Oh Aunt Lee Lee is number one.  Then who is number two?

Eli:  The Mommy of Jesus.

Me:  Okay I can't compete with that one.  Who is number three?

Eli:  Grand-Mommy.

Me:  Can I at least make it in the top five?

Eli:  Fourth is that woman who owned my old daycare.

Me:  Mrs. Tatum?  Not sure I want to know who number five is now.

Eli:  I will let you be number five Mommy.  You are at the bottom of my list.
