The Magic Word!

Yes, another child story...

When my daughter was about 2 yrs old (now 5) I thought I would begin to teach her a few manners. For instance, saying please. I can't remember the exact circumstances, but she had asked me if she could have something that was in my hands. I promptly replied with "What's the magic word?". I caught her off guard and she was truly puzzled. After a few seconds thought she questioned me back with "...Abracadabra?". Of course I couldn't turn her down and she got what she wanted.
