Teenage defiance

Yesterday I experienced yet another first with Amanda.  This is how it went down.  We had just finished lunch and Amanda went and sat on the couch and I went to my bedroom.  From the living room I heard Amanda ask for a pudding cup and I said, "No."

This was not the answer she wanted and she said, "Come on Dad."  And again I said no.

I promise, not a minute later I walked into the kitchen and I catch Amanda putting a spoon in the sink and holding an empty pudding cup.  Her answer was, "Uh oh.  Don't tell Mama."

I said, "Mama isn't the one who told you no, I was."

Amanda kind of laughed and said, "Not scared of you."
