David Riley talking to Uncle Steve about learning to scuba dive:
DR: I'd like to learn how to scuba dive, Uncle Steve!
US: Well, when you get a little older, maybe I can teach you. Then we can go swimming with the sharks and stuff in the ocean.
DR: I know one thing, Uncle Steve, we wouldn't have to worry about sharks eating me.
US: Why's that?
DR: 'Cause I'm a spoiled little boy and I'd make them sick.

David Riley and Papaw (the WonderHusband) playing with Legos:
DR: Do you know what kind of an animal I'm making, Papaw?
WH: No, what is that?
DR: It's a croca-horse-adile. That's so that the Lego people can ride on it.

My mother talking to the Diabetic Counselor:
Mom: My daughter is so bossy! She's always telling me what to eat, and what not to eat.
D.C.: That's okay. Sometimes it takes bossy, take-charge people to take care of stubborn, elderly people.

My mother talking to the Dietitian:
Mom: Well, my daughter cooks stuff that I'm not allowed to eat. If I can't eat it, she shouldn't cook it!
Dietitian: Your daughter is cooking for herself and her husband, also. The world doesn't revolve around your diabetes. Cut her some slack!
----------------------------
Yep, that's the way my world has been talking the past few days!

LOL on the spoiled child quote! Too funny!
And the stubborn mom ~ how'd she take that? LOL!
I was told I sound snotty today. :-P
Mom just stared at the lady like she had lost her mind! Don't you just love comments like "snotty" and "bossy"??!! (not so much!)
It's good to know that someone else is standing "your" ground for you, Theresa, and defending you to your mother. That always helps, hm? *smile* Hopefully, it will help your mother's outlook a little?
