Monkey: Sit daddy's lap?
Me: No sweetie, the plane is landing, you need to stay in your seat.
Monkey: (ok, woman, you clearly didn't understand me - let's try this again) MONKEY (well, her real name, but you get the picture) sit daddy's lap?
Me: No, sweetie, you can't sit on daddy's lap, but thanks for the clarification!

Me & M: giggle, laugh, phew!
