A common dialogue in our home....
Megan: Mommy/Daddy you read me a book (holding favorite book of the week)
Mommy/Daddy: Not now Megan, Mommy/Daddy has already read that book 10 times today
Megan: Mommy/Daddy you read me a book (holding favorite book of the week)
Mommy/Daddy: Not right now Megan, I need to (insert necessary task that needs to be completed)
Megan: Mommy/Daddy you read me a book (holding favorite book of the week)
Mommy/Daddy: Megan you need to wait for Mommy/Daddy to finish (insert task attempting to finish)
Repeat the above sequence 5 consecutive times with no breaks or pause between sentences.
Megan: Mommy/Daddy you read me a book
Mommy/Daddy: (Sigh in defeat) Sure Megan, let's read the book.
Read favorite book of the week, then start at the beginning again.
