over the breakfast muffins

Little Bit: "For my birthday are you going to buy me that Barbie car?"
Little Bit wants one of those electric ride on toys for her birthday.
Me: "I don't know if we can get that for you. It's rather expensive."

Little Bit sits there for a moment.
Little Bit: "O.K. If you can't get it, that's ok. I'll ask Dad to get it."

Little Bit's birthday is a mere 50 days away.
