Power Struggle

(Ruby was getting dressed and needed her beloved "jacket" this morning, you know the one that is terrible looking and about 2 sizes too small. The one that she takes everywhere in her pack pack.)

Stella: Ruby, you can't wear that jacket, it's too cold outside. You need your coat!

Ruby: NO DELLA. I WANT MY JACKET!

Stella: RRRUUUBY, GET YOUR COAT NOW!

Me (the mom, using her mom voice): STELLA....

Stella: MOM, I know I'm not the mom, but you aren't doing a good enough job! And she needs a warmer coat.



For the record, Ruby was always going to wear her jacket AND her coat.
So there.  Stella.
