how to mess with a child's head

juancho (4-year-old nephew whose name is mentioned too many times in this blog) entered my room the other day with a mission.

juancho: mom wants to borrow a small nail cutter! she's going to cut my baby sister's nails.

me: ok, here. oh tell your mom it's not really that sharp.

juancho: ok! (starts to run away)

me: WAIT!!! don't run!!!

juancho: why?

me: because it's sharp.
