It's being difficult

The other night I was trying to get Maddie to let me put her pjs on for bed. She was not having any of that. I calmly gathered her clothes and the flyswatter and told her to come with me.
"Mom, whats the flyswatter for? You gonna kill some flies?"
"No, baby, its for you in case you decide to be difficult"
I didn't have any problems with her after that. When everything was done she asked me to change the batteries in her night light. So I got the batteries and tried to put them in. I got frustrated and was getting mad at the thing.
" What's wrong mom?"
"These batteries are being difficult"
She didn't say a word, just reached over for the flyswatter and smacked the night light with it. I think we both laughed for 5 minutes straight.
