She’s starting to understand

Hannah is making something for her cousin for his birthday.  The party is today.  The craft was decided about a month ago, but it’s one she needs my help with.  Here’s the interchange from this morning:

Me:  Hannah, we can start working on [that craft].

Hannah:  The party’s today!  Why haven’t we worked on it yet?!?

Me:  [still in a calm, pleasant voice]  Because we’ve been sitting on our tushes doing nothing all week.

Hannah:  [with resignation and amusement]  Okay, I get it.
