We've Got Our Priorities in Order

A conversation over a game:

Lucas: I'm going to be on Ethan's team against you Mommy.
Mommy (feigning hurt): You don't want to be on your own mother's team? Me, who gave you life? You'd rather be on Ethan's team??
Lucas: Yes. He's my brother. He's the most important person.
Mommy: More important than Mommy?
Lucas: Yep.
Mommy: More important than Daddy?
Lucas: Yep.
Mommy: What about your wife someday? Will she be more important?
Lucas: No. My brother will still be the most important.
Mommy: What if you have kids? Will they be the most important?
Lucas: (after a few moments of contemplation) They will be tied. Unless I have a girl. She'll be a little less important.
