Hey Steve!

 

Kids are great aren't they.  I have to forewarn you though,

 

"And more reasonable."

 

probably won't last forever.  Just like most things in this wonderful world, I have found my children's reasonability is cyclical.  When very young, you certainly can not reason with them, but they slowly rise on the curve of reasonability.  It has been my experience that it peaks around the age of 9 or 10 and starts to slide down.  At around 15 or so it hits bottom, and slowly begins to rise back up.  I have yet to see beyond this age in my children, but I am certainly hoping that it finds a nice peak and sustains itself there as they become adults (I think mine did, though some may disagree).

 

So, enjoy you daughter's rising reasonability while you can!
