Boyce's Demands and Negotiations

Boyce: The longer you don't stop working and come make my lunch, that's how long I'm going to yell, "I'm hungry!", as loud as I can in your face.

He yelled it about 100 times before he got frustrated and stomped off.

Boyce: Mom, I'll be quiet and leave you alone if you take me to McDonald's.

Boyce: Mom, can you call Drew and Jax and Daniel L.'s moms and make a playdate?

Me: Sure, I can do that. Should we invite Allie, too? Her mom asked to do a playdate with you also.

Boyce: No, she's not on my list.

Me: What list?

Boyce: The list of kids that are allowed to play with me. If they aren't on my list, then you don't need to call their mom.

Boyce: Mom, you need to go ahead and order a hot tub.

Me: Oh really? Why is that?

Boyce: Because they are so relaxing...and hot.

Me: Well, they really aren't for kids.

Boyce: Just get one, Mom. I'm about to be 5 already.

Boyce: Mom, will you scratch my back?

::Scratching::

Boyce: You're not doing it right. Scratch all over!

::More Scratching::

Boyce: Okay, you're done now.
