This is how my conversation with Olivia went today when she was asking to play Starfall, a computer program.
Mom, can I play Starfall?
Not today.
Why not?
Because it is Sunday Olivia and I don't think that it is a good idea.
But I have played it before on Sundays.
Well, I guess I made a mistake then.
You made a mistake? (in a shocked tone)
Yes sometimes I do that.
No, I mean my mom made a mistake? exasperated
I started laughing at this point
Why are you laughing mom?
I think that you are funny.
I just can't believe that my mom makes mistakes!!!
She will soon learn that her all knowing, all seeing, supermom... is really only human.

oh you should never have told her that! lol. That is too sweet of her though. good thing you got it recorded so you can remind her in the future that she thought you were perfect. I love it
I think that it is amazing that it took her so long, you must be pretty near perfect for that to happen=}
That's so funny! It's hard to explain to kids that we parents make mistakes sometime, but make sure they still keep that balance of respect and trust.
lol. that is so cute!
That is so cute! I bet you've only made that one mistake though, right?
