Well, not all of them. I've really only lied to one of them. Sophia is, at this point, still immune to lies and misdirection. After all, she'll believe whatever we say as long as we feed, change and clothe her.

Anyway, speaking of lying to the kids, Lauren has been disobeying / ignoring instructions from me a lot lately, so last night when I was brushing her hair after tubby time, there were a bunch of tangles in it.

She said "daddy, why are there so many knots?"

My response: "Knots in your hair come from disobeying, so the more you disobey, the more knots you'll have in your hair."

She opened her mouth wide and covered it with both hands, shocked at what she'd heard.

I looked behind her and the wife had the same look on her face as well.

Man, this kind of power is awesome. In the wrong hands, it could be dangerous.


Happy Wednesday everyone!
