Who's the Boss?

About a year ago I overheard the following conversation between Oscar and Lily while playing food.

Lily: I want ketchup.
Oscar: No, you need mustard.
Lily: Oh, I want mustard.

Then last week I overheard this while they were playing superheroes--

Oscar: Do you want to be Supergirl or Batgirl?
Lily: Supergirl.
Oscar: No, you be Batgirl.
Lily: Oh, I'm Batgirl.

Well, I guess not much has changed from then to now. Today Lily said in the car, out of the blue, "I'm gonna be the boss when I get big." Oscar was quick to chime in, "But I'll be the real boss."  

Good luck with that, Lily.

I too can see this happening. They are constantly trying to one-up each other. I'm better than you because such and such.

I'm putting my money on her starting to stick up for herself and her position one day soon. :)
