MINE!

Kasia is that stage in life where everything is "MINE!" The other day when we were playing at Little Birdies, she dove on to a pile of toys, like a future Medal of Honor winner diving on a land mine, and shouted "MINE!" Of course, she mean they were hers... not that they were an actual land mine or anything. She was probably still hoping for a prize though.
Then I brought my old keyboard down from the attic because I thought she would enjoy playing with it. The first thing she did was instantly declare it "MINE!" I was not allowed to touch it or show her how it worked.
"MINE! MINE! MINE!"
Fine, I said. If this is yours, then where did you buy it?
Without thought or hesitation, she immediately said, "Food Lion."
"Really? Food Lion? You bought this keyboard at Food Lion?"
She thought about it for a minute and then corrected her statement. "Dollar Tree. I got it at Dollar Tree."

Then I went to show her how to turn it on, and I was stopped with "MINE!" Fine. It's hers.
