A 3 Year Old's Logic


P1:  Daddy, I want some goldfish.
Me:  Okay, but we are eating dinner in a little bit so you can only have ten.
P1:  Okay Daddy.
(I put 10 goldfish in a ziploc bag)
P1:  Daddy, I want a lot.
Me:  No Presley, we're about to eat.
P1:  (starts crying) But I want a lot of goldfish.
Me:  Presley, you can have ten or zero.
P1: (Crying even more now) But I do.
Me:  Presley, you can only have 10 because we are about to eat, and I don't want you to be full so you can eat your dinner.
P1:  But I don't wanna eat dinner.  My tummy is just full. (Still crying, by the way)
Me:  So Presley, your tummy is too full to eat dinner, but you're crying because you want more goldfish?
P1:  (Still crying)  yeeeeeeesssssssssssss.
