If one says no, maybe the other will say yes

Scott's age is beginning to show! Today Scotty was wrapping the bathroom blinds cord around the towel rack and asked me if that was okay. I told him it was okay to use the cord as long as we were careful with it (did not wrap it around our bodies and pulled slowly to open the blinds). He then proceeded to tell me the following: "Yesterday my my daddy told me not to wrap it and I told him I would ask my mom tomorrow and she would say it is okay." I knew he didn't tell David he would ask me...but oh boy he sure is clever to think it through like that. I can't believe he is old enough to try the 'what doesn't work with one parent, I'll try with the other' trick. David and I are going to have to be quick if we're going to keep up with him. He is growing up way to fast!
