Back story: 8 year old son has been home for 2 weeks of winter "vacation" and has discovered a wide array of activities in order to entertain himself and completely annoy myself and his father.
This morning, 7:56 am:
Son bounces basketball in the kitchen.
"J, stop that! I told you not to bounce the basketball in the kitchen!"
Son stops bouncing ball and sings very loudly.
"I told you a million times not to sing so loudly!"
We get into car. Start driving towards school.
"Mommy, these are all the ways that I can annoy you: I can bounce the basketball in the house. I can sing really loudly. I can hover. I can hug you too tightly."
He smiles.
I guess he knows EXACTLY what he is doing....

You bet! Kids are smarter than we give them credit. Babies learn what makes parents do their bidding. We're manipulated by the best. :) Nice that he's honest too.
