Self-regulating toddler? What?

Elena was being upset on the bed because I wouldn't let her take her open cup of iced tea onto the bed. I was minding my own business folding laundry when she said, "top creaming?"
"What was that?"
"Stop screaming?"
Huh? "You want to stop screaming?"
Big nod.
"Okay, honey, you can stop screaming whenever you want."
At that, she calmed down and moved on to another activity. Odd, eh?

This is awesome. Of course Nonna, ever the spelling police, has to say that didn't you mean "regulating"? :)
