Stubborn

Here's an idea of how this went down:

Owen: "Mommy, will you help me put on my socks?"
Me: "You know how to put them on by yourself."
Owen: "Noooooo, I need you to heeeeelp me!"

This continued for a minute until Owen finally put on his socks by himself.  Or actually, just one sock.  On both feet.  And then he hopped down the hall with this one sock on both feet.  Just to prove that he really needed help.

Which he didn't.
