The centre of the universe

This scene takes place 7:45am this morning, we overslept and kiddo has a dentist appointment at 8:30. husband is in the shower, kiddo and I are in the kitchen.

Kiddo: I don’t want milk on my cereal.

Me: K (turning on the coffee perk, making sandwiches for lunch, grabbing and slicing fruit, dumping Cheerios into bowls, I start to pour milk into 2 of the 3 bowls)

Kiddo: Mom I said I don’t want milk!

Me: Umm this isn't yours, this one is your fadders and this one is mine. We have to eat breakfast too.

Kiddo: (grabbing the third bowl off the kitchen counter) Oh. I thought you were ruining my cereal.

Me: Wow! What do you think, the whole world revolves around you?

Kiddo: Um, no. The earth revolves around the world, but you and dad revolve around me.

YIKES! So this is what happens when you promise your pre-teen an omlette for breakfast, then sleep in and force her to eat cold cereal.
