Blueridge Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 (This is our actual conversation from today, written down quickly so I wouldn't miss any details lol.) We had finished our lunch, and as I was cleaning up, dd12 had started a Wii game. She was fully engrossed in it when I asked her if she had finished her room cleaning from yesterday. Her response was "Yep". :tongue_smilie: To which I replied, "Don't you mean yes ma'am?" And then she followed up with (in a thick British accent, mind you), "Oh, I am so sorry, honored mother. But don't you think that *yes ma'am* is a bit too impersonal? Wouldn't you prefer a little something less formal...less superficial? After all, we have a close bond as mother and daughter. How about *yes mom*?" :001_huh: :lol: I gave up on the manners lesson. Now I'm going to take a nap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carol in Cal. Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 I loved it when we read about ancient China in SOTW, and DD started calling me Honored Mother whenever she really, really wanted something. Yay for world history studies at an early age! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
