Kid: Mommy I am learning English, Spanish, Chinese and French.

Mommy: I am so proud of you. You are so smart.

Kid: I am even learning to speak Mommy, too.

At this point, I asked if I needed my own language. Then she bat her eyes and smiled and hugged me.

All the tablets in the world!

It started on Tuesday.

I was driving my 3 year old to school and she was playing Alphabet Goop on my Playbook.  The game was going swimmingly. Then, out of no where, out the blue, came 6 words that tore my heart out and made me scream for Jesus to come down and save me now!

My 3 year old said to me “Mommy, can I have an iPad?”

What the hell?

Call an exorcist, my child is possessed by Steve Wonziak… HE’S A WARLOCK, I TELL YOU.

I turned around calmly and said “We are #TeamBlackberry, we don’t need an iPad. Plus, mommy bought you a Nook Color when you turned 3 years old. Theorectically, you have 2 tablets, which are better than an iPad”.

Retort from 3 year old human: “…but Lesley (her BFF) has an iPad!”

The conversation dies down. I put my foot down.

Until this morning… while I was talking to “Granny Marie”, a shrill voice of a naughty 3 year old raised high and mighty during our phone conversation and then uttered the blaspheme of modern ages to #TeamBlackberry….

Mommy, can I have an iPad? I want one.  Lesley has one.

I said no. What will you do with the Nook Color.

Response from small human: I guess I have to close it up.

*blank stare at small child I gave birth to 3 years ago*…. CALL THE EXORCIST! IT’S THE APPLE DEVIL FROM WITHIN!

I thought about it….

I got very quiet….

…then with all the might of a mighty warrior preparing to do battle with the giant cyclops using only stones, I replied….

“go ask your father!”
