So, I was putting the girls down for bed tonight and Linda yelped for more milk (yes, they still drink milk before they go to bed-- I am a loser). Anyway, I said as sweetly as possible, "I'm sorry, honey, we don't have any more milk" because I was too lazy to go downstairs and get some and I knew this was just a stall tactic anyway.
Lucy, not Linda, got up on her knees, looked at me in the eyes (which was actually kind of scary in that light...) and said, "THEN. GO.BUY. SOME. MORE. MILK."
Wowzers. The things they learn from their father...

A girl who knows what she wants...
I like her already! :)
Isn't funny how these little kids think/know they just own us and can get away with saying things like that!
It's official. They so own you.
Now, what she really meant to say was, "Please, mommy, more Ovaltine?" The eyes flutter innocently, assuring you that she can't possibly hurt you, though she is thinking in the back of her mind of various punishments should you not deliver the goods.
