I told the girls they can't get up from their seats until they eat all their food. They keep discussing the different things they'll be able to do once they eat all their food, which they are not trying to do at all. Some of it I say they will be able to do and some of it I say is a non-starter. For example I'm not going to help them do any painting today. Just now Clara starts to list all the possibilities of their post-eating day:
Clara: So! If we eat all of our food, we get to [starts counting on her fingers] have a piece of candy, paint a turkey-
Me: No we are not painting any turkeys.
Clara: No! I'm just saying all the things!
Me: Yeah but we aren't going to paint anything.
Clara: Stay calm!
Me: [laughing] ok?
Clara: I'm just talking right now!
Clara: Okay. So! If we eat all of our food... [She continues listing things to herself without my unhelpful input.]
Me: No we are not painting any turkeys.
Clara: No! I'm just saying all the things!
Me: Yeah but we aren't going to paint anything.
Clara: Stay calm!
Me: [laughing] ok?
