Playing Slap Jack with my children, my son was dealing from the bottom, the middle, other people's hands...
Me: "You need to put the cards into a pile and give one to your sister, one to me, and one to you...one to your sister, one to me, and one to you...one--"
Brayden: "What's the big deal? Why can't I do it MY way?"
Me: "Well, you need to do it the correct way so that you are able to play cards with others. Like maybe you could join our card games when we play with Grandma and Grandpa."
Ryan: "Yeah, and you'd better make sure you do it the right way when you play with Grandma. That woman's eyes are like a HAWK!"
My children make me smile...
