Rebecca. "No!" she says.
I have not seen my little grand-daughter Rebecca for several weeks. A little while ago she came upstairs, running to me. I catch her hug her and kiss her sweet innocent little forehead.

"Did you come up here to see me?" I ask her. "No!" She says. "I came up to get fudgesicles, two of them." On the way to my fridge she says "Make that three, one for David."

As she is leaving I say "You are welcome." Without turning around she says "Thank you."

Rebecca is five years old now.

seriously, though, i'm sorry you're having to deal with this. hopefully it's just a phase(a day long phase?) and she'll go back to lovin ya.

this is why i don't want to have kids - they're very cute as babies/infants but then they start doing things like this :(

keep your chin up, 180. she'll do a 180 in no time at all :D
