As part of a successful effort to distract her from the pain and suffering of shower time:
Daddy: Stephanie, what's your favorite show?
Stephanie: Dora.
Daddy: What's your favorite food?
Stephanie: Peanut butter jelly.
Daddy: What's your favorite animal?
Stephanie: Cow.
Daddy: What's your favorite song?
Stephanie: Itsy bitsy spider.
Daddy: Who's your favorite mommy?
Stephanie: [Mommy's name].
Daddy: Who's your favorite daddy?
Stephanie: Robert.
Six straight questions, six forthright answers. Don't tell me I'm not ready for the New York Times. I could get blood from a stone! And note how my clever ordering of the questions allows me to "spin" the story in a way favorable to my own interests.
