Maggie: Mom, do I have gym today?
Kate: I have gym today!
Maggie: (skeptical) You do? You have gym at preschool?
Kate: Yes! And computers! I have gym and computers today, just like you!
[Maggie looks at me questioningly. We've talked about this several times already. She knows Kate just wants to seem grown up like her big sister, and it really hurts her feelings to have it pointed out that she doesn't have gym or music or computers or library at her "school." I do a little silent head shake behind Kate's back.]
Maggie: OK. Computers and gym. I only have gym today.
Kate: And spy class! I also have spy class on Fridays!
Maggie: MOM. Make it stop!
