Princess do not interrupt

Ellie has a book of manners where all the Disney princesses show her how to be polite. Ariel never interrupts unless it's an emergency.

At breakfast, Mommy and Daddy were having a conversation.

Ellie: Mommy, Mommy, Mommy, Mommmy!
Mommy: Ellie, Mommy and Daddy are talking now.
Ellie: Yeah.
Mommy: Remember what a princess does? She waits until Daddy is done talking.
Ellie: Yeah.
Mommy: (continues her conversation with Daddy).
Ellie: Top talking Daddy!
Daddy: (stares at her unsure what to say).
Mommy: (stares at her trying not to laugh).
Ellie: Top talking Daddy, pease! (mistaking our stares for the "what do you say first" look).

Proceed to laugh. At least she gets half of the concept.
