I swear this is exactly how the conversation went
March 25, 2007
We’re in the car, discussing pizza versus Taco Bell. Shut up, it’s a Sunday, we wanted to treat ourselves.
Hubby decides on pizza. We can have it delivered, so we head home. The baby is asleep in the carseat, and the rest of us wait in the van while hubby carries her inside.
The second he’s out of the car, Mary erupts with complaints: I wanted Taco Bell! I don’t WANT pizza.
Me: Sorry, honey, today we’re having pizza.
Mary: But I like Taco Bell much better.
Me, because I am a total softie: Tell you what, we’ll have it for lunch on Tuesday.
Mary, not missing a beat: No! I can’t have Taco Bell!
Me: Bwah?
Mary: I can’t. I don’t like it.

Oh, isn’t that so frustrating. Even as adults don’t you feel that way sometimes? Sometimes I want to know that I could have gotten my way even if it’s not what I really want!

I think I’m in the midst of a conversation like this at least once a day! And it’s not even usually me being the flip-flopper.

I can just see the look of “ok, what do I do with that” written all over your face.

Yeah… been there. Hated that. Needed to get a mouthguard from all the teeth grinding… (not really, but it sounded good!)
