So it's not all about me

The girls and mama are driving in the car.
Mama is singing.
Zanzi and Buzz: Don't sing mama.
Mama: Well then can I at least turn the radio on?
Zanzi: No.
Mama: Well that's a bummer.
Zanzi: (No sarcasm, just matter-of-factly) For you it is.


Zanzi is explaining something to mama. She stops suddenly and says:
"That's all I have to tell you."


Mama to Lily: I didn't hear what you said Lily.
Zanzi: I think she's talking to herself.
Zanzi to Lily: Were you talking to yourself Lily?
Lily: (In her teeny, tiny, whisper of a voice) Yeah.
(Note from Mama: I don't think she was talking to herself, thank you very much Zanzibar Buck Buck McFate.)

Yes, A LOT. Put in my place is the appropriate phrase. She keeps me humble, and humored.
