We always have "quiet time" after lunch. Ian knows the drill and will occasionally take as long as possible eating to delay the time he has to lay down. The other day he was begging for one more piece of chocolate.
"No." I said.
"Why not?" was his obvious reply.
"Because."
"Because, why?"
"Because I said so." (HA! I AM the mommy, I can say that.)
"Ahcc. Mommy, that is NOT a reason to me." He explains as though talking to a, well, toddler.
It was so funny I burst out laughing. He smiled indulgently at crazy Mommy, not getting the joke.
"Well, it is a reason to ME. No more chocolate. "
We go to all this trouble to teach them to think and then they go and think all the time. What is a mom to do?
