Morgan was disappointed b/c I told her to go up to her room for a quiet time.
Morgan: "It sounds like you're jealous." (Huh?)
Emily: "It sounds like you're not listening to me."
Morgan: "It sounds like we're not friends."
Emily: "Yes, we are."
Morgan: "No, we're not."
Repeat last two lines about 5 times.
Laughing... this testing of authority tennis match is a daily occurance. In fact, I have adopted an old adage my Dad used to say when it comes to disciplining Morgan: "choose your battles". I try to use humor, firmness, grace and consistency.
No matter how fiesty you are, little Morgan, I still love ya.
