Blankets

Caitlyn has two favorite blankets.  She has her monkey blanket and Maw Maw blanket(a hand crochet blanket).  She uses both of these ontop of her sheet and bed cover.  They have a specific order and if you don't do it right, she lets you know about it.  Now, MawMaw's blanket is heavy and we try to limit it to use during the winter months.  We do make a big production of bringing it out when the weather cools off and putting it away when the weather warms up.

Last weekend, I pulled MawMaw's blanket for cleaning and storage for the summer.  Monday night, Caitlyn asked for MawMaw's blanket and I explained to her that we were putting it away because it was too warm to use it.  Here is our conversation....
C "I want MawMaw's blanket"
M-"MawMaw's blanket is being put away, it's too warm."
C-"I said I want MawMaw's blanket"
M-" I said no, we aren't using it right now."
C-" I said I want MawMaw's blanket"
M-" Cailtyn, I said no."
C" and I said YES, I want MawMaw's blanket"

Daddy proceeds to bury his head in his hands and laugh quietly at this exchange.  BTW- Mommy won.  MawMaw's blanket did not make it to the bed.
