It was my idea first

I found the following conversation with my nephew to be amazingly funny and noteworthy.
Preface:
My nephew is an amazing ball player. He always gets to his games first and thus gets to bat first. My Dad pointed out that if he were to bat say 3rd or 4th it would actually net his team more runs because he would more than likely hit a homer or triple or something else amazing. Anyway, my sister and I have been trying to make Isaiah realize this for days but he has insisted on batting first...until today... this was our conversation
Isaiah: I'm going to tell coach I want to bat clean up today.
Me: That's not last is it?
Isaiah: No, it's 4th Tata, then I can get any one who is on base home, get more points. Get it?
Me: Isn't that what your Mom and I have been trying to convince you of the last few days?
Isaiah: Hmph! rolls eyes...
I love that kid. He reminds me of someone I grew up with who insisted she was the "Poseffer" (Professor) and knew all there was to know. You know who you are... :)
