William: You have to be careful - we have to drive the speed limit.
Mama: Yes, I am driving the speed limit, but we have to hurry a little so we aren't late for school.
William: Drive the speed limit. That sign says "Speed Limit 25"
Mama: Yes, it does.
Amelia: NO! It is not speed limit.
William: Yes it is. Diaper head.
Amelia: NO! It says Speed Lemon.
William: No Amelia! It says Speed LIMIT Amelia! Sound it out!
Amelia: No! It is Speed Lemon. I can't sound it out because I can't see the sign. I know it says Speed Lemon because that is what Mama says. Speed Lemon.
William: (in exasperation) AMELIA! It says SPEED LIMIT!
(arguing continues)
(and continues)
(and continues)
until we finally get to school. It might have the longest 8 minute car ride of my life.
