You Know Who Likes Bananas?

*conversation takes place while Molly eats the banana we compromised on when I wanted her to eat cereal for breakfast, and she wanted to eat chips.*

Me:  You know who likes cereal, Molly?
Molly:  Who likes cereal?
Me:  Aunt Erica.  Aunt Erica loves cereal.
Molly:  Oh, my Erica loves cereal!
Me:  Yeah, so don't you wanna be like Aunt Erica and eat cereal?
Molly:  No.  No, I don't like cereal.  *pause*  You know who likes bananas?
Me:  *knowing where this is going, and the kid is about to defeat me again*  Who likes bananas?
Molly:  Aunt Erica!  My Erica loves bananas.

Molly:  You shouldn't say that, Daddy.  You really shouldn't say that.

You're Not Daddy

Molly:  Daddy!  Can you get me some juice please?!
Me:  I'll get it in a minute, Molly.
Molly:  No, Daddy.
Me:  Well, I can get it, you know.
Molly:  No.  You're not Daddy, Mom.
