I was trying to help get my daughters dressed for the day. As usual they both claimed that they needed help. Not surprising for my 5 year old daughter but my 8 year old should be able to achieve the task herself.
So I slog into my 5 year old daughter's room and ask her if she needs any help. She responds "yes Daddy!" with the tone of voice that said "of course you dumbass, isn't that what I just asked?"
So I rifle through her closet and come out with a very cute skirt that I bought her when I was on a business trip to Texas. It is a jean skirt with pink bandana ruffles and a matching pink shirt with an image of cowgirl boots on the front- a cute western outfit just perfect for a 5 year old girly girl which is exactly what my daughter is.
I presented the skirt and shirt to her and asked "What about this?"
She looked directly at me an sternly said with the air of a teenager, "Daddy, you aren't helping."
I aske her "so darling, what can I do to help you?"
She replied without skipping a beat or having to think, "You can leave my room."
