The Scene: I’m sitting on the couch eating my breakfast, watching baseball highlights on ESPN. Enter Jaxon, our 3-year old, who speaks in soprano. The current highlight is Angels -Rangers.
Jaxon: Dat du Cubs?
Me: No, it’s the Angels.
Jaxon: du Cubs?
Me: No. Angels.
(highlight switches to Dodgers – Marlins)
Jaxon: Dat du Cubs?
Me: No, it’s the Dodgers.
Jaxon: No, dat du Cubs.
It the Cubs.
Me: Whatever.
I often say, if you find yourself arguing with a 3-year old, you’ve lost. How true.
