Little Miss Haana likes to bully me when I'm putting her to bed. "Mumma, tickle my arm". It starts off like that. But then, "Higher up". Then, "Lower". "In the middle". Then, "Other arm now". "Higher up". "Now tickle my back". "Not there, on the left side". "ON THE LEFT SIDE MUMMA!". Never shy about showing discontent! One morning, she told me to "Warm my arms now"!
So I thought it would be only fair for me to train her to my ways too. This morning, on the way to summer camp, I taught her when mumma tells you all the things you need to do, you need to respond with "Yes Master". She wanted me to try it first. So, she came up with a directive about her make belief toy: "You shall take this sword and bow to it", she said. "Yes, Master", I complied, eager to get to the rest of the fun.
Then I said, "Make sure you finish your lunch, take big bites and chew fast". To which, she replied with words like honey, "Yes, Master"!!!!
Of course I repeated my command to hear the yes-master several times.
