twisted words

GAVIN: Mom! Logan keeps not obeying you. He keeps on going outside to play basketball when you said to stay inside.

ME (exhausted from a long day): ::sigh:: Gavin, go tell Logan that he need to listen to me and stop doing that.

GAVIN: Ok, mom.

....then....

GAVIN: Logan! Mom said you better stop doing that right now or else she's gonna come outside and give you five really hard spankings and make you cry cause it's really, really gonna hurt.

Of course, we don't spank them, which just makes this even sillier. But he fell for it and came inside.
