Say What?

We try to make things fun, a game, a race to help Madison accomplish simple mundane tasks. Like getting dressed, setting the table, you get the picture, right?

So the other day we get in the car and she yells "I can beat you up mommy!" so I say "what" and she repeats it " I can beat you up!" so I tell her that is not a nice thing to say.

So she says ok , my seat belt can beat you up!" well now I am wondering what in the world is she talking about?!? So I ask her, I don't get it what are you talking about!!

Finally in a quiet voice, I think she knew she said something wrong "mommy I can put my selt belt on faster and I can beat you."

Oh, I finally got it and asked her were you trying to say I can beat you in the race to buckle up? She replies yes and we talk about what beating up someone means...she got it and now when we get in the car she laughs and says her selt belt will beat me up!
