I've had that same conversation a gazillion times, and I still get this power-trip feeling :)

I tell my 4 year old ALL the time that I am the BOSS and that's why!  Her answer is "Oh yea, well I AM THE BOSS, NOT YOU!" and she stomps down the hallway!  At least your son accepts that you are!  I am personally moving away when my youngest hits the teen years!  LOL!
Hugs and love, Lisa

Yeah what he doesn't know is the other side of being The Boss... which is why we stay up late... balancing the budget, cleaning house, searching for the "perfect gift" for loved ones, reading all those home-improvement books, cleaning house, writing tomorrow's "to-do"list, tearing up today's.... Sometimes it'd feel pretty fine to be sent to bed at 7.... or 8... or 11. Which reminds me... time to hit the sack. Night boss. Lock up will ya?
