Thing 2 was trying to stretch his wings at age 5 and testing the waters....
"Mom, when I'm 19, and I'm taller than you, I'm going to be the boss of you."
( this is coming from a 5 yr old BOY... who just told me 2 days ago, TWICE, that I'm beautiful.) Just giving you the context of where this is coming from.
"Baby, even if you were 7 feet tall. I'd still be the boss of YOU."
Thing 2: "But, I'd be taller than you and bigger!"
"Baby, even if you were Dad's size, 7 and a half feet tall, AND the president of the United States, I'd still be the boss of you." (At that moment, I needed to go to the kitchen to grab more milk)
I'll remember that when I think I can plan and handle my day without any help.
