Mother May I?
Cora, as we were exercising per her request: Mom, can we actually play "Mother May I?"
Me: Sure.
Cora: I'll be the mother.
Me: OK. Mother may I move forward two steps?
Cora: No.
Me: Mother may I move forward one step?
Cora: No.
Me: Are you going to say yes to anything?
Cora: If you ask if we may play a game.
Me: OK. Mother may I play a game with you?
Cora: Yes! Sure.
Me: All right, how about sequence?
Cora: Um, no. It needs to be a game I can win.
That about sums up what it's like to play with Cora these days. Bossy three year old girls are still hard to resist, though...
Me: Sure.
Cora: I'll be the mother.
Me: OK. Mother may I move forward two steps?
Cora: No.
