Testing my 4-year-old nephew’s understanding of familial relationships:

Tyler: “Moms are always the bosses.”

Steph: “That’s right. And who is MY mom?”

Tyler: “Cha Cha!”

Steph: “Good. And who is YOUR mom?”

Tyler: “You are!”

Steph: “Yes.”

Me: “Hey Tyler- who am I the mom of?”

(Thinking….)

Tyler: “Uncle Eric.”

Correct.
