Me: I don’t think you should have any more crackers, sweetie, because I’m cooking supper.
2-year-old daughter: OK! So I put the crackers here and then I ask you for another one. Then you say no and I cry and cry. Then I stop crying and be happy.
The best part is when she proceeded to put the sleeve of crackers on a chair, leave the kitchen and then returned a couple minutes later. She asked for another cracker, and when I said no, she gave one hell of a fake crying performance. She came over for hugs and then miraculously snapped out of it, happy now.

that is utterly hilarious.
It’s too much! I miss her!
Too funny!
This cracked me up. I’m surprised my own daughter hasn’t pulled this trick yet. Little buggers are too smart for their own good sometimes. :)
I love it when they tell you how it’s gonna be. At least then you’re prepared for the huge over-reaction to come! :)
