a great little negotiater

Our little girl has become master of negotiations.

Example 1:
"cuddle in chair?"
"ok but only 5 minutes and then its time for bed."
"Can cuddle for 10 minutes?"
"No honey, cuddle for 5 minutes."
"Can cuddle for 2 minutes?"
...kid, you're going the wrong way.

Example 2:
"Ok, let's go read a story and then go to bed."
"Let's read 3 stories." (holding up 3 fingers)
"No, just 1 story and then time for bed."
"how about 2 stories?" (Holding up 3 fingers)
"One story and then bedtime."
"One story," (counting fingers) "one, two three."

And last but not least, Example 3:
(Said high pitched, with exaggeration and squinting through one eye at fingers held up closely together) "please just a teeny, tiny movie?"
