Introducing the Yeah-buts

Do you have some yeah-buts living at your house? We have two little yeah-buts around here. They're pretty cute and we're planning on keeping them. You probably have them too, if your kids are old enough to speak in sentences. Gene's dad coined the name after hearing "yeah, but" one too many times. I know you've been there before too. You ask your child if he's ready to go and the response, is "Yeah, but I don't have my coat!" Gene's dad calls the boys "yeah-buts" because of this and they love it. Now whenever someone says "yeah, but" the boys are so attuned to it that they ask, "Did I just hear a yeah-but?" Yeah, um, yes, you probably did! I guess I'm a yeah-but too!
