Words I Dread: Part 1

"I Want That."

Mailee's birthday is in April. I have tried to explain to her several times that her birthday is a long way away. I've gone through every one of her relatives who will have a birthday before she does. We're talking like 20 people. Additionally, today is Mark's birthday. This makes absolutely no difference to her. Several times a day, while watching tv or while we are at the store, she will see something she likes and say, "I want that for my birthday! Can I have it, please? Please? Please?" I want to stab my eyes out.
