Keeping it real

J: "Mommy can I have another treat?"

Me: "No. Four is plenty."

J: "For real?"

Me: "Yes."

J: "Seriously? For real mommy?"

Me: "Seriously. No more treats tonight."

J: "For real?"

Me: "No. I mean yes. I mean no....no more treats."

J: "Then can I have a treat in my lunchbox tomorrow?"

Me: "We'll see."

J: "For real?"

Me: "Yes, for real."

J: "Can I have two treats in my lunchbox?"

Me: "J, if you don't stop asking for more treats you won't get any."

J: "For real? Not any?"

Me: "Yes, J, for real – if you don't stop asking."

J: "For real?"

Me: "J PLEASE stop....(SIGH) yes, for real."

J: "Mommy..."

Me: "J, I'm warning you."

J: "For real?"

Just the nightly dinner conversation at our house. 

For real.
