Keeping Me Humble

Sadie and I were reading a story together about the great Chicago fire. It read, "Sunday, October 8, was a disaster just waiting to happen." Because October 8th happens to be my birthday, I leaned over and whispered, "Do you know what else happened that day?"

"What?"

"Your favorite person was born that day."

Without hesitation, Sadie asked, "Teddy Roosevelt?"

Somewhat perplexed, I answered, "No. Me."

Sadie chuckled and said, "You're not my favorite person."

So I asked, "Is Teddy Roosevelt?"

"No, I just like him," she replied.

Well then...
