Just 'Tres' Stuff

On the way home from church yesterday, here was our conversation:

Tres: I want candy, please!

Mom: When we get home, we'll have lunch, then you can have a piece of your birthday cake.

Tres & Bryant: Yeah! Cake!!

Mom: But only after lunch.

Tres: (Starting to whine) But I just want cake!!

Mom: That's why I'm the parent... I have to make sure you get good food in your body so you grow bigger, and not just junk.

Tres: Hey! My cake is NOT JUNK!
