So this is new....

This was our conversation before naptime today. Let me lay out the scene for you. Tula is standing ON TOP of her table, ball in hand, being a goofball for Mav. It's 2:30 and getting close to being "past naptime" which, in mommy-land, is the worst thing that can happen to your day. It goes like this:

me: "Tula, get down from the table. NOW. Tables are NOT for standing. And just so you know, you have five more minutes till naptime."

Tula: "Me no want. No nap. I ball. Play ball."

...and gets down from the table to walk away, like as if the conversation was over. I pretty much just stood there with my jaw on the floor. This did not just happen to me. I got "told" by my two year old.
