Convincing Power

These days the usual trend to get me to say something that Mamma / Dadda want to hear is "Rhea, do you know how to sing Wheels on the Bus rhyme or count from one to ten?" And if I am not in the best mood usually pat comes my reply "Nope" which is typically followed by Ma, Dad saying "Hmmmm..I think Rheu knows." 
Of course  I can't let them down, so there goes the rhyme or counting or singing.

Yesterday inspite of my persistent request for letting me turn the dishwasher on Mamma denied it without any consideration. 
To this my immediate response was "Mamma,do you know how to say 'YES'...Hmmm I think Mamma knows."

Of course parents are our best teachers.
