Me, at bedtime: "And remember the rule: If you open your door for any reason, then we're taking away your leapster."
Jared: "And if I don't have a reason, will you still take it away?"
It even took me a second to figure out what he was saying.
And then forty minute later, his door opens and before I can put on my Huffy Voice and go up to take away the leapster, a little voice calls out: "Mommy, I don't want the leapster." I tell him to put it in the hallway, which he does, and then he goes back to his bed and falls asleep.
Unreal.
Sometimes, I wonder if punishments like this one do anything except make me feel as if I'm doing something.

That is too funny, my daughter does the same thing. They really keep us on our toes.
