Sassypants was living up to her screen name all over the place today. When I got home, I discovered that she asked for noodles for dinner and didn't eat them. That's a deal breaker in this house and results in requests for additional food to go ignored.
She doesn't care, she makes them anyway.
Insistently.
SassyPants: Can I have a peanut butter and jelly sandwich?
Awesomeness: No. You didn't eat your dinner. I'm not giving you more food to waste.
SassyPants: But I neeeeeeed a peanut butter and jelly sandwich!
Awesomeness: No. I already told you no. Don't ask again.
SassyPants: But mooooooom, I neeeeeeed a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Awesomeness: If you neeeeeeeeded a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, you should have aaaaaaaaaasked for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. You didn't. You asked for noodles, you didn't eat the noodles, you go hungry.
SassyPants: But...
Awesomeness: No. You're not getting your way. Stop asking. Give it up.
SassyPants: I WILL NEVER GIVE UP!!!
She meant it too. As I'm typing this post, she is still insisting that I need to make her a sandwich. Sassypants, meet Ignorasaurus Rex.
