She was just pretending

We were at the dinner table the other night when Hailey was telling a story. During the story, she was holding her fork, prongs down, and driving them into the table top....HARD! I told Hailey to stop and made some wise comment i am sure bout how stabbing the table is not appropriate. Hailey responded, "Daddy, I'm not." The incident repeated, again with my same admonishment. She replied this time, "Daddy, I'm not. I was just pretending....really hard!"

If it weren't so funny I would have been furious. As it was, Val and I busted up and it became one of those moments.
