Right in the middle of the bedtime story

2009/02/17

“The clock struck twelve, so Cinderella ran out of the palace, down the stairs, and out—”

“Wait, wait. You’re not supposed to run in school.”

“I don’t think Cinderella is in school at this particular point in the story.”

“But if she runs in school, she would get a time-out.”

“Noted.”

“I’m better at school than Cinderella. I don’t ever run in school.”

“That’s awesome, Leta. Keep up the good work.”

“So I think you should let me have ice cream for breakfast.”
