Oatmeal with Cows Milk

So Lucy loves oatmeal. I don't mean instant oatmeal or quick cooking oatmeal but the Old Fashioned oatmeal. Every time she is here that is what she orders asks for. I try to mix it up a little bit and get her to eat an egg and toast, a waffle, a pancake, anything else. But nope! She is a girl with a routine and she is sticking to it.

This morning she was eating her oatmeal and said to me, "Gramma, I don't drink soy milk". I said OK Lucy I will give you regular milk. She got very stern with me and said, "Not regular milk, Gramma. I drink cows milk". I told her that regular milk is cows milk but she insists if I call it regular milk that it is not cows milk. So from now on it is cows milk. Little stinker.

She may have a point Vonda. "Regular" milk for ME is rice or almond milk. So if you were to ask me if I want "regular" milk and it wasn't my regular, well, it wouldn't be pretty. ;) Just kidding. I do see your point--Mmmmm Yummy. I miss COW'S milk!!!! (ice cold with chocolate cake... sigh.) At least you don't argue with her. I remember when I was about 13 and babysitting. I argued with a 6-year-old about how much dimes were worth...or something like that. Sheesh. I remember how irritated I was so it obviously had an impact on me! I wanted to be RIGHT. He did too. :)

By the way, Lucy is adorable!
