A few months ago I taught Charlotte the word "boss". I thought it was genius. I would ask, "Who's the boss?" Charlotte would always answer "Mommy's the boss!" I particulary liked asking this question in front of Andrew. Hearing, "Mommy's the boss" just reinforced my belief that I was in charge.
This is the conversation we had at bedtime tonight.
Charlotte: "You're not the bus. You're the car. I'm the bus!"
Me: "I'm not a car. Mommy's the boss."
Charlotte: "No, Mommy. You're the car. I'm the bus!"
Me: "You're the bus?"
Charlotte: "Yes, Mommy. I'm the bus! You're the truck."
I don't think I will be asking "Who's the boss?" for awhile. I don't think my self esteem could take hearing "Mommy's the bus!"
