The Art of Repetition

I was tucking The Love Fairy in last night who was in a particularly lovey Love Fairy mood and she said:

"Mama, you're the best mama ever."

"Oh really, why?"

"Because you love us even when you yell at us."

(Hmmmm, so they know I yell.  I was hoping they didn't notice.) 

"How do you know that?" I ask.

"Because you've told us that one hundred times."

Whew. And I always think I'm talking to myself.  

Good to know one thing has sunk in.
