I want more presents!

I've created a monster.

P: Mommy, I want to do Hanukkah now and open my present.

Me: Petra, it's 10am. We do Hanukkah when it's dark out...at sundown.

P: (trying to put candles in the menorah; getting quite agitated) But mommy, I want to do Hanukkah now. Make the fire!

Me: Petra, settle down. We'll do Hanukkah later.

P: (says nothing. Just writhes and screams on the floor in full-on tantrum mode)
