DH does this with Brody, too, except the phrase is "Daddy gonna get a stick"...lol Brody has only ever played with, and chewed on, a stick, and DH has never even picked up a stick in Brody's presence (it's me who plays with Brody and sticks), and Brody has no idea what it would mean
IF DH were to
EVER "get a stick" 'cuz he's
NEVER even held a stick out to Brody...but the minute DH says those words, Brody runs to the house...and DH
only says those words when Brody's selective understanding/compliance is in "neutral"...lol
