Everything's relative
Maddy: You know what bugs me? My friend Kylie always teases me that if I cut my hair short I'd look exactly like Sam. She tells everyone that, even though she knows it makes me feel bad.

Oh, Annie! They are so cute. (And funny.) They must take after you...
that sam is a genius in disguise.
Good thing Sam's so cute.

You're adorable, Maddy.
That is really cute. Sam has a healthy sense of self-esteem. Very nice.
