Moms Don't Always Get What They Want

After dinner today, I asked Victor to get me fun pop. (That's a half-size otter pop.)

Me: Victor, would you please get me a fun pop? Red, pink, or yellow, please.

Victor got me a purple fun pop.

Me: Red, pink, or yellow, please.

Victor, sing-song: "You get what you get and you don't . . . "

Me: I'm the mom and I get what I like!

Victor, whispering in my ear, as if breaking bad news: Except a new car.

HaHa! That's the truth! :)

By the way, I've been meaning to thank you for your column on Nauvoo Times that answered my question about the mail. I already do/did some of what you suggested, but there were a couple of things that have been quite helpful that I hadn't thought of. So thanks! :) Hope you're enjoying your summer and your time with those cute boys! Love ya!
