Grandboy (holding toy that’s been in a box for years now): Gwumpa I’m old enough NOWWWW to play with this?

Me: Not yet. Let’s see how you behave for a while yet.

Grandboy: Awwww you ALWAYS say that Gwumpa. (Brilliance ensues) How ’bout when I’m 8 years old? Can I open it when I’m 8?

Me (counter brilliance ensues): How ’bout we wait til you’re 8, and then I can answer the question?

Grandboy: YESSSS! I GET AN ANSWER WHEN I’M 8
