Daddy's time out

My three year old daughter goes to preschool three days a week now and for some reason I'm obsessed with what she eats for lunch. I know they serve good healthy food but for some reason I just really want her to tell me what she has for lunch everyday, even though I could easily just pick up a copy of the menu or ask her teacher. Now that I've begun writing this I am realizing even more how insane it is, but anyway. Normally on the car ride home she would tell me about her day and then tell me what she "tried" for lunch. But as of late she simply says I don't want to talk about it...the lunch part that is. And it makes me crazy...I just want her to tell me! So the other day I waited until after the ride home when she was comfortably settled on the couch watching Dora and asked her in my sweetest daddy tone, "What did you have for lunch today sweety?" Blank stare. "Uhm sweety pie, what did you have for lunch today?" Blank stare. "This television is going off until you tell me what you had for lunch today!!" Blank stare with tears forming. "That's it, you go sit on the stairs until you tell me what you ate for lunch today!" Full on tears as I pick her up and place her on stairs while she screams "NOOOOO!" Alright time to change tactics..."Sweetheart you're not in trouble I just want to know what you ate for lunch today." Blank stare with tears. So this back and forth continued a couple more times until I realized I was acting like the three year old and she just wants to chill after a long day of school and watch her shows. So upon this realization I turned Dora back on and sat myself on the stairs until I calmed down. Then about half an hour later she turns to me with no prompting and says "Daddy I had green beans, crackers and milk for lunch, I'm sorry I made you angry." So I guess once in a while daddy is the one who really needs the time out!
