Not only does Rachel tell me what I'm supposed to be saying in any given situation, but she also is giving me drama lessons. Yesterday we had this conversation:
Rachel: Mom, can I have some of your breakfast because I'm soooo hungry?
Me: Okay, here you go.
Rachel: No, I want a raisin bite. (I was eating Raisin Bran)
Me: Okay.
Rachel then takes several bites, eating all of the raisins. I don't really care because I think there are too many raisins in Raisin Bran anyway.
Rachel: Now say this, Mom, 'Hey, who ate all of my raisins?' and then I'll say 'But it's fair because I think the raisins are so yummy' and then you say 'Okay'.
Me (following instructions): Hey, who ate all of my raisins?
Rachel: But it's fair because I think the raisins are so yummy.
Me: Okay.
Rachel: NO, Mom - when you say 'okay' you have to dump your head down on the table like this and then say it in a really sad voice.
She showed me how it was supposed to look when I "dumped" my head down on the table. It was funny because when she dumped her head down on the table it looked very familiar, and I realized more than ever that when she has her little dramatic moments they might all be carefully planned acts.
