The Duchess is a picky eater - no surprise, she's four and Daddy (WoWguy) eats like a teenager - pizza, tacos, burgers, etc - so when she started eating regular sandwiches, specifically peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and cheese sandwiches, naturally Turtle and WoWguy were thrilled.
One day last week, the Duchess and her daddy had a PB&J for lunch. After she finished, she said, "Ok, now I'm ready for my cheese sandwich."
Just then the phone rang. "Ok, baby, but Daddy needs to take this phone call from work first, then I'll get you a cheese sandwich."
A few minutes later, she said again, "Daddy, I'm ready for my cheese sandwich."
"Sure, ok, I'll just finish this and get a cheese sandwich for you."
Little while later, "Daddy, where's my cheese sandwich?"
"Oh yeah, I need to do one more thing here, then I'll get it."
Then, while she waited patiently, spinning around his office chair, a song on the radio and caught his attention:
"Duchess, come here! Listen to this! It's Daddy's favorite song!"
Stopping the chair, she put the full Duchess mode on:
"NO IT'S NOT!! Your favorite song is GET. ME. MY. CHEESE. SANDWICH."
She got her sandwich.
That's a girl who knows what she wants. Hah.
