The Powers of Persuasion

The husband has great powers of persuasion. So much that I get annoyed at him trying to persuade me to jump on his idea (or plan or feelings or thoughts). But he doesn't always win.

Last night, Papa tried to use the power of suggestion with Haydster.

"I want to watch," (looks at me), "What did I say?"

Me: "Finding Nemo."

Papa: "I want to watch Finding Nemo."

Haydster: "How about...CARS?" (This DVD has been almost worn through by constant use.)

Papa: "No, I don't want to."

Haydster: "I do."


No go for Papa. CARS it is.

Powers of persuasion fail to a three-year old.
