Three days before Christmas...
"So, did you finish your baking?"
"Baking? What was I baking?"
"You know. Christmas cookies and stuff."
Um, no." Look of near insanity ensues.

While shopping...
"$50? I don't love my kid that much."
"Yes you do."
"$50 for a blankie? No, I really don't."
"If that blanket meant Meimei would sleep all night in her crib, you would so buy it."
"Well, you have me there."
