Talking to toddlers

Maia dropped a cup of milk on the carpet on purpose today. While I was setting up the wet-vac, this was our conversation:

Dad: Am I happy right now?
Maia: No. You are not at all happy.
D: Why am I not happy?
M: Because you are sad.
D: Why am I sad?
M: Because you are not at all happy.
D: I am sad because you spilled the milk on the carpet and I need to clean it up.
M: Yeah.
D: Can you say that you are sorry?
M: I'm sorry, Dada. I will not do that again.
D: Thank you. Why won't you do that again?
M: Because I'm a robot.

Well... at least we understand each other :)

That cracks me up. It's almost like talking to management.
