Below is an almost verbatim transcript of a few of the exchanges Evan and I enjoyed on the way to preschool today.
*******************
Him: “What time is it, Mommy?”
Me: “It’s 7:51.”
Him: “It’s NOT 7:51!”
*******************
Me: “Look, it’s really foggy outside today.”
Him: “No, it’s NOT really foggy outside.”
*******************
Him: “Can I hold my lunchbox?”
Me: “Sure. Just don’t unzip it please.”
(I instantly hear unzipping noises)
Me: “Please don’t open your lunch right now.”
Him: “I’m NOT opening my lunch!”
*******************
If I didn’t laugh about this? I WOULD CRY.

Wow, he sure has a statement and is sticking to it!
Let's just chalk it up to determination, which is such a strong personality trait for later in life, right?
Hope the laughter outweighs the tears...
I think that's one of the things I find most frustrating about little childen - how can you possibly reason with someone who absolutely denis facts?
I LOVE this post because it reminds me of my sweet little nephew... he SO does that "NOT" about everything!!! My poor sis... and you. ;)
