Love

Driving to a holiday party. Christmas carols are playing, and everyone is feeling jolly.

V: "I LOVE Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. And pugs."
Me: "I know, Vasco, you also love the Einsteins, right?"
V: "Yes, I LOVE Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, pugs, and the Einsteins.
Me: "And mommy and daddy?"

Silence from the back seat. A few minutes later,
V: "Mommy, I LOVE Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, and pugs. And also..horses."
Me: "And how about parents, Vasco? Do you love your parents?"
V:"Hey, you tried to trick me, mommy!"

Yes. Yes, I did. But, evidently, you are already way way too smart...
