My mom sent me this conversation via email, and I had to share:
C running into the house from outside: Grammie, Daddy has an ice cream sandwich , and I want one, but Daddy said, “Not now.”
Grammie: C, Daddy is the boss. If Daddy said not now, then you have to wait.
C: But it’s not FAIR.
Grammie: I am sorry about that. Daddy is the boss so we do what Daddy says.
::Pause::
C: Grammie, I want YOU ta be da boss!Smart girl, that one.
