Different is GOOD!

Humberto left early this morning for a short business trip.  On the days he is gone, I am completely open to bribing my child into good behavior.  She is NOT a morning kinda girl.  This morning it cost me a sausage biscuit and a hash brown (her favorite).  As I was backing out of the garage, things almost took a turn for the worst.

Elaina:  Someone else has the same as me! (insert hmph)
Me:  That's good! (don't even know what she is talking about, but I'm fully prepared to make lemonade out of her morning lemons!)
E:  They have the same Valentine as me!
Me:  That's good, everyone will get TWO fun dips!
E:  well...I did NOT appreciate that.
Me: there aren't that many valentines choices so that's probably why
E:  I just wanted to be different.  Different is good. (God, please let her remember this when it comes time for $50 jeans, $100 UGGS, body piercing, tramp stamps, spring break gone wild and "I really love him...he's in a band!"
Me: Yep, you're right...different IS good.
E: Can I have two hasbrowns
Me: NO!
