More Rilyn Logic...

So two days ago I had a headache, I was kind of crabby, it had been a long day and I go to pick Rilyn up from daycare. Rilyn and her friend, Rylie, like to "hide"when they see me coming usually and I have to pretend to find them. This can extend our time at Tara's for about another 5-10 minutes. Well, I didn't feel like playing the game that day and Rilyn of course threw a temper tantrum. We get in the car...we're on our way home, and Rilyn says (in a very sweet voice, not whiny), "I miss daddy, I love daddy". So we called Daddy to tell him. Mind you, I've already had a long day, I've already made my daughter mad, so I felt like I need a little ego boost from my daughter. I asked her, "Do you miss mommy sometimes?" Her response (as if it was one of those nonchalant, 'shrug your shoulders' kind of responses): I miss evybody, I miss "Mary" (long pause)...no, I don't like "Mary". For the record, Mary's name has been changed to protect her identity from the public dislike of Rilyn ("Mary" is a girl at daycare who doesn't necessarily get along with the other boys and girls sometimes). It was just funny that I fell under the vague category of "evybody", and how she decided to eliminate "Mary" from the equation.
