She's a BOTH/AND kind of girl

The other day, as we had cupcakes for dessert, I asked the girls, "Do you like cupcakes or candy better?"

Hannah: Cupcakes!
Naomi: Both!

Then I asked, "Do you like cupcakes with frosting better, or without frosting?"

Hannah: With frosting!
Naomi: Both!

Of course, when you're a small girl and your mom talks about DEfrosting cupcakes that have been in the freezer so that you can have them for dessert, it gets a bit confusing.

Me: I'll defrost the cupcakes.
Naomi: I like frosting. Can I come watch you?
Me (not understanding that she thinks I'm about to frost cupcakes): Yes, but they're almost defrosted, I just put them in the microwave. Okay, here you go, take it to the table!
Naomi: Okay. I'll unwrap it.
Me: Okay.

A minute or two passes.

Naomi: Mama, are you making the frosting?
Me: Oh, no, we're not having frosting tonight. OOOOHHHHH...Sorry, Naomi, when I said DEfrosting, I meant that I was warming them up in the microwave because they were frozen. We don't have frosting tonight. Maybe we'll have frosting the next time we make cupcakes.
Naomi: Oh, okay.

She ate the cupcake anyway -- she does like them both ways, you know!
