Setting:Kendall and Emily are in the car, at a very busy intersection, during the lunch rush and the roads are cut to one lane for construction.
Kendall: Mom, is this traffic?
Emily: Yes.
K (speaking slowly): Mom...is...this...traffic?
E: Yes.
K (loudly): MOM, I SAID IS THIS TRAFFIC?
E: Yes! I said yes!
K: You should say, "Yes. This is traffic."'
E: Fine. Yes. This is traffic.
K: No it isn't.
Emily bangs her head against steering wheel.

My "conversation with a contrary 4 year old":
Mirai: Can I please have peanut butter toast?
Me: Yes, here you go.
(pause...)
You're welcome.
Mirai: Oh, thank you!
(another pause...)
Mirai: You didn't say "You're welcome!"
Me sticking my head into the pantry looking for carbs...
That sounds like many of the conversations in our house!
I guess she wanted clarification. :)
