Time out for Mommy

Yesterday I was sitting on the couch writing a grocery list when Brent came up to me and tried to take my pen. I told him, "Brent, you need to wait until I'm finished and then you may have it." He ignored this comment and tried to take it again exclaiming that he needed to put it up! I repeated, "Brent, you need to wait until I'm finished and then you may put it up." Brent looked me square in the eye and said, "one...two...three...okay mommy, you need to go to time out.!" He then grabbed my hand and led me into his bedroom and shut the door behind him as he left. It was really funny..the first time. Then I had to explain to him that he was not allowed to put mommy in time out.
