OMG

(While learning about long and short e, we have gone from me giving examples to the kids giving their own)

Kid: Pet
Me: Long e or short e?
Kid: Long a
Me: We are talking about the letter E and pet has an E in it not an A.
Kid: No it doesn't.
Me: Excuse me?
Kid: It's an A.
Me: Pet is spelled with an E.
Kid: But...
Me : We are not having a discussion about this, it has a short e in it. End of story.  
      Who can give me another example?
Kid 2: Tebow
Me: What?
Kid 2: Tebow
Me: Like Tim Tebow?
Kid 2: Yes
Me: ....long or short?
Kid 2: Long
Me: Good I think we are done for today...
