Why She Loves Her Daddy More Than Me

This morning:

Me: "Maddie, have some oatmeal, honey."
Maddie: "Nononononononono."
Me: "What do you want then? Cheerios?"
Maddie: thrashing wildly on the floor. "Waaaaah!"
Me: "Too bad, if you're not hungry, you don't have to eat."

30 minutes later...David is driving Maddie into work....I call him to see if she is okay....

Maddie: "MORE MORE!!! Dadddddddy! More! Hee heeeee!"
Me: "Why is she so happy?"
David: "Uh."
Me: "What? Just tell me."

David: "I-just-fed-her-a-chocolate-donut-from-the-drive-through-at-Dunkin' Donuts."

Maddie: "Daddy! I loooovee you! More!"

And this is why Mommies never win.
