She gets it!

Bathroom conversation;

E~ "Sometimes I need a little more cause my bottom is wet."
Me~ "That's OK, but you need to work on being more efficient with the toilet paper..."

This is where I thought I'd be clever, as E was exiting and headed down the hall.

I continued~ "Paper doesn't grow on trees you know!"

E takes a second, stops and does a short analysis of my statement and turns to me.

E~ "But Dad, paper does come from trees."

At that moment I broke out in a BIG smile and told her she was SMRT. I was inwardly happy that she caught on to my snare and hoped that she understood that this is a trap that as she grows will be used in humor and teasing but the important thing is for now...

She gets it!
