Nothing is a Choice???

Me: Abby, what do you want for breakfast? Busy Bee Cheerios, rice Krispies, or Apple Jacks? 
Abby:  I want toast
Me:  That's not a choice at the moment, (we're out of bread so I repeated the above) and added oatmeal
Abby:  Mummy, (in a sassy voice) I want toast.
Me:  Sweetheart, you can have (the above)...those are your choices.  Or you can have nothing.
Abby:  (stared at me with a "are you kidding me? you'd give me nothing" look)  I'll have busy bee.....
Me:  good choice


Oh Abby, you just make me laugh!  Now, I get that most of you reading this might not find the humor.  But if I had taken a picture of the incredulous, surprised look she gave me - it was just priceless.  I'm such a mean Mommy. :-)
