Two of my nieces, SD and MG, come to my mom's house every Wednesday after school for "Gran's Day". And they usually stay until 5 or 5:30 when their mom comes to pick them up. Today I asked my mom what time my sister MR was coming over and she said that she was just going to drive the girls home instead. I was sad cause that meant I wouldn't get to see niece #3 AJ. I said this to my mom and she said that I could go with her to drop the girls off and then that way see AJ. In my head, I thought eh I don't want to have to go and do all that but I do want to see AJ so I reasoned I would go. I said nothing-- I didn't commit, I didn't reject. I said nothing.
Later when my mom was getting ready to go, she told me how to finish making dinner while she was gone. I objected since I thought I was going all along and my mom said that I had whined or something implying I didn't want to go. This went back and forth for a few minutes until my six year old niece MG popped her head into the kitchen and said "Aunt Annie's right! She didn't say anything. I heard her!" That's right Gran you just got pwned by a six year old. Conclusion: I didn't get to go since dinner was cooking and so I did not see AJ. :( But I'll remember this come MG's next birthday and maybe get her a little extra something.
