This goes over with me about as well as "a fart in church"(as Matt Lauer so eloquently put it this morning on the Today show). I cannot give one order before an immediate counter offer is on the table (lovely son of mine, we are not writing a contract on a house, nor are we bartering like the pilgrims and the indians)which I immediately veto, and then that goes over like (well, just ask Matt)....BECAUSE I AM YOUR MOTHER,THAT'S WHY...oh no, I sound just like you know who!!! Let's just say that this daily (really hourly) exchange has the Pinot coming BEFORE the playdates.....
Well said. My mother always taught me that "because I said so" is always a perfectly good explanation. :)
