So This Happened Today

The following takes place between 9:00 and 9:15 AM on Saturday July 27, 2013

The Child [grabbing my hand]: Come here Daddy.

Me: Okay?

The Child [stopping in front of the fridge]: Cookie Dough?

Me: I'm sorry baby. It's too early for ice cream. You can have some grapes.

**The child then pulls a sword from behind her back, and points it up toward the sky**

The Child: By the power of Greyskull, I HAVE THE POWER!!!

Me: ???

The She-Ra Child: COOKIE DOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Me: Who do you think you're yelling at? Go sit down right now before we have a problem.

**The She-Ra Child then storms away while stomping on the floor, meanwhile I'm looking for my own He-Man sword in order to deal with her. She then leaps up into the air, "lands" with her entire body laying flat on the floor, pauses, bumps her head onto the floor, and then gets up crying**

The Stunt Double Child: What's wrong, Zoe? Are you okay? Come here. It's okay. Don't cry.

**She gives me a hug and then sits down on the couch and starts reading a book.**

Me: [Googles homemade Holy Water recipes]
