Me: CJ, can we give away one of your Thomas trains to your friend for his birthday? You have so many Thomas trains.
CJ: No!
Me: But CJ, you have so many; you even have unopened trains that you need to earn with stars.
CJ: Mama, would you like it if I gave away one of your boxes? (I collect boxes from around the world.)
Me: Hmmm... good point, CJ.
CJ: Mama, I want to keep all my trains in my collection and you want to keep all the boxes in your collection!
Me: You're right, let's get a present for your friend.
Me: CJ, it's time for bed. We're going to read 4 stories coz you're 4.
CJ: But mama, I'm 4 and a half. Can I have a bonus?
Me: CJ, it's time to brush teeth.
CJ: Can I brush my teeth after stories?
Me: No, we brush teeth first and then read stories.
CJ: But mama, I want to read stories first.
Me: Sorry, CJ, we brush teeth first then we read stories. Do you need to pee?
CJ: Mama, I'll pee after stories.
Me: Okay, you can pee after stories.
I'm toast, I know.
