Conversations with a 3-year-old

Jeremy: Mommy! Clean up this Spaghetti!!!

Mommy: Jeremy, do not talk to me like that, I am not your slave.

Jeremy: What does that mean?

Mommy: It means I do not work for you.

Jeremy: I work for you!

Mommy: Yes, sometimes you work for me (giggling).

Jeremy: Am I a slave?

Mommy: No, you are definitely not a slave.

Jeremy: What's a slave?

Mommy: Sit down and eat your ice cream...
