"You're not allowed to wear dark colors, because I said so!" Kira squeals, pulling roughly on your navy blue shirt as she sits in your lap. Today's a very important day for you. You'd just gotten a promotion at work, and so you and your spouse have invited a few people over for a celebratory dinner. However, your seven-year-old has other plans. This isn't your dinner party anymore. It's hers. And everything has to look how she wants it to, including you.
"Lamb? But the guests want cupcakes for dinner!" Kira whines again, this time turning over to your spouse who's only asking what kind of wine would be nice to serve with the lamb tonight. She doesn't even know the guests all that well. It's just that she wants cupcakes since she hates any other meat besides chicken.
