Yes funny little things 3 year olds are.
Sometimes funny "Ha, Ha" and sometimes "Get out of my sight before I pack up your things and donate you to charity" funny. We get a good balance of the 2.
Here's 3 of my favourite:
#1
Guilt trip? Probably the start of many.
"So, you have air-con in your room, and there's one in the lounge. Why don't I have one in MY room? It's so hot, I can't even use a blanket"
Yes, this is straight from the 3 y/o's mouth, not sure if she really wanted the air-con or was just using it as an excuse to come into our room. I promise that her room was not hot, it was all drama.
#2
Admittedly this was after traipsing around the shops right in the middle of the Christmas chaos. I was shopping alone with the 2 kidlets, #1 was driving me nuts with her constant whining and demanding that she needed everything that she saw. I got sick of it and told her to stop whinging as it was driving Mummy insane.
The response, "But I wanna whinge, I like whinging" Great. Then she went on and on and on and on about how she liked whinging - whinging about whinging, perfect. Music to my ears.
And lastly after being asked if she could draw me a lovely picture at school, I was promptly told the following, "I'll draw a picture for Daddy, you can go buy one from the shops". Seems I'm not worthy of her precious scribbles. Can't wait until I am elevated to "Daddy" status, in the childrens eyes that man can do no wrong - EVER.

Lol, I can completely relate!
My kids have separate rooms at the moment and Mr.3 wanted to sleep with big brother.
After being told 'no', he says;
"thats just not fair mama, you and daddy get to sleep together, I want to sleep with jack-y"
..and so begins the guilt trip!
They're just charming sometimes aren't they!!!???
I've got a horrid 3 year old today who told me to "Go away...go back to work". Lovely creature!
