Me: "Okay - we'll get it when we go downstairs."
Jane: "I want milky now."
Me: "Hang on for one minute."
Jane: "I. Want. MILKY."
Margot: "Mommy said you have to wait a minute."
Jane: "Margot, I want milky. You want milky?"
Margot: "No."
Jane: "Oh. You like milky? You want milky, too, yeah?"
Margot (with exasperation): "No, Jane, I don't want milk."
Jane. "Yes . . . you want milky."
Margot: "No, I don't."
Jane: "Mommy, Margot wants milky."
Margot: "Jane, stop it! I don't want milk."
Jane: "Yes, you do. Margot wants milky!"
Margot: "I do not want milky!!!"
Jane (pausing): "Margot, you can't have milky."
Margot: "What?"
Jane: "You can't have milky. You don't like milky."
Margot: "Yes, I do too like milk."
Jane: "Mommy, Margot can't have milky, ok?"
Margot: "Jane, I can have milk!"
Jane: "Oh. You can't have any milky, ok? You don't want milky."
Margot: "Yes, I can have milk."
Jane: "You're not having milky."
Margot: "Mom - I want milk. Can I have some milk?"
Me (silently): Is it really only 6:30 a.m.?
