Yep...the dreaded question by any and all who ever travel with children. Kate is notorious for asking one of the three following questions before we even get to the interstate:
1. "Are we almost there?"
2. "How much longer until we're there?
3. "Are we there yet?"
So, today, as we leave at 9 a.m. to visit a good friend and her two sons (pics to come later), Kate of course asks...several times. Pete and I try to talk to the kids in times of movies. Yeah...no comments please (ahahah). We'll tell them about how many movies they'll have to watch before we get somewhere, and then tell them that they can't ask any of those three questions until after a movie finishes.
Well, today the tables turned a little. As we're driving, the girls were watching "Empire Strikes Back." I haven't watched that movie enough to know the music and dialogue that is close to the end. So, I asked about three different times if it was almost done and Delaney responds:
"You know Mom, you've asked that about three times now and it's starting to get irritating. We'll let you know when the movie is over. Now stop asking that, okay?"
Well--she got me on that one! I just started laughing, and didn't ask that question again!
