Precision is key
Little B and Simone sat, comfortably ensconced in the couch.
Little B said, "I'm thirsty. Can I have vanilla milk?"
Simone replied, "No. You cannot have vanilla milk. There's only one hour left before bedtime and I don't want you to wake me up at midnight because you have to pee."
At that point, Simone was reminded that she needed to go elsewhere for a few moments. When she returned, little B was gulping down a bottle of fruity water.
Simone felt her temper boil and bubble. "Did I not tell you that you couldn't have a drink?" She demanded.
Little B shook his head as he licked his lips. "You said "No vanilla milk!""
ARGH!
