Nail Clippers

Alex came into the bathroom while I was polishing Bella's nails.  He asked if he could have the nail clippers.

Me:  You can borrow them, but, you have to give them back.  I can pick you up some nail clippers if you want your own.

Alex:  Really?  Can't I just have these?

Me:  No.

RT (from the other room):  That's a really sweet deal.  I would take it.  Mom wouldn't let me come near her nail clippers for 14 years.

Me:  And now it's only with supervision.

Alex:  Really?  Why?

Me:  (whispers)  Because he steals them!
