The day your child says she hates you, and every child will go through the phase, it kicks like a foot in the stomach.

...and that's when I get to wondering, what would happen if I told her she something good, ever day?

Only three things them ladies talk about: they kids, they clothes, and they friends. I hear the word Kennedy, I know they ain’t discussing no politic. They talking about what Miss Jackie done wore on the tee-vee.

That's what I love about Aibileen, she can take the most complicated things in life and wrap them up so small and simple, they'll fit right in your pocket.

Some readers tell me, 'We always treated our maid like she was a member of the family.' You know, that's interesting, but I wonder what your maid's perspective was on that.

Bosoms are for bedrooms and breastfeeding.

I intend to stay on her like hair on soap.
