At my parent's house, the kids have a little box full of things like a stapler, tape, a notebook, pens and other stuff so they can play office. One of the items is a smiley face stamp. That is the one item that both kids really really want to have when they play. Tonight, Jamie got the stamp. Maria is funny. She isn't really a whiney, screaming, crying, naughty kid (that's not saying she never does these things, but she doesn't do them a lot). Sometimes, she's super subtle in her sassiness.
So Maria obviously was coveting the smiley face stamp. Jamie was stamping a notebook with the smiley face stamp. Maria got jealous. With her yellow highlighter, she drew a big "X" right through the middle of one of the smiley faces. My mom caught her doing it and kind of scolded her. Jamie saw it, too...
Jamie: "Oh, Maria! That big "X" makes it extra special!"
Her sassy plan totally backfired.
