How do they figure out "maybe" so early?

I have so much blogging to catch up on, and one of these days I'll get started, but for now here's just a little tidbit.

A month ago, or maybe two, Owen was requesting something as we were driving somewhere. I can't even remember if this particular request was to do something special or eat some special treat or what, but I remember the ensuing dialogue:
Mommy (answering Owen's request): Maybe.
Owen (excitedly): Yippee! "Maybe" means yes!

I laughed a little out loud and a little to myself because I remember being a kid and thinking exactly the same thing about the "maybe" response.

That is so funny....lately for us the answer to requests for things has been "maybe for your birthday." So I'm just waiting until after Mia opens her presents for her to say "where's the umbrella, bathrobe, new earrings, those bubbles we saw at Safeway, nice fleece jacket like yours, etc. ??"
