It's hard to be humble

The story begins:  Jon dressed Jack at the church in time for pictures.  The photographer running a little behind.  Time to kill.

Jon:  Jack, you sure look sharp!

Angie:  Jack, you look SO handsome!

Jack walks up to Memaw (groom's grandmother) and says:  I sure look sharp.

Jack walks up to another guest who arrived early and says:  I look sharp, don't I?

Jon:  Jack, you don't say nice things about yourself.  You wait for others to say nice things about you and then say thank you.  You need to be humble.  

Jack:  Okay, Daddy.  Sorry.

Jack thinks for a minute and walks up to someone else he doesn't know and says:  How do I look???

haha! that's too cute. it's tough to learn the proverb "let another man praise you and not your own lips." but hey, it's ok to do a little prodding now and then i guess =)
