Funny conversations

We were driving to the park yesterday and suddenly a crazy conversation began to unflod: E: Hey Mom, you forgot something... Me: What? E: (delighted) I'm not buckled! Me: Oops! Sorry about that. E: Pull over and buckle me! Me: We're nearly there (I know; poor parenting. But we were really about 2 blocks away from our destination) E: But what if a sneaky police officer in a regular car sees me and he gives you a ticket?! W: Mom! Buckle Sissy fast! I don't want you to go to jail! Me: Even if a police officer saw that Eliana wasn't buckled, I wouldn't go to jail. They would just give me a ticket. E: Yeah Will, she wouldn't go to jail. But if she gets THREE tickets, then she goes to jail (she was clearly enjoying egging him on). W: (still upset) I want a mommy AND a daddy! Don't go to jail mom! Me: I'm not going to jail (pulling up at the park now). I don't know where they're getting their information about the laws of the land, but it looks like we need to talk. Poor William relaxed once we got to the park.
