Me: Your room is a mess.
Grandboy: I know, gwumpa. I clean it someday.
Me: Today is a good day. You should clean your room today.
Grandboy: Wellllll,… (excitedly) how ’bout Tuesday? Yes I clean it on Tuesday!
Me: …
Grandboy: What today is?
Me: If you’re cleaning your room on Tuesday then today is Tuesday . Let’s clean your room.
Grandboy: (thinks) But.. Um. Today’s a SPECIAL Tuesday. I don’t have to clean on special Tuesdays.
Momma: You’ve got ten minutes.
