[While driving home from school]
Girl: I love you, Mama, but I think I love Daddy more.
Me: OK.
Girl: It's because he's away so I love him more. But when he comes back, I'll love you both.
Me: OK.
Girl: Are you okay with that?
Me: Yes. It's okay. I love Daddy too.
Girl: Do you love me or Daddy more?
Me: Well, I love you both, just differently. I love Daddy as my husband and I love you as my child. And I love you, Boy, and Boy2 the same.
Girl: Because we're all your children.
Me: Right. But, even though I love you the same, you may have different needs because of how old you are.
Girl: Like how we'll need a cellphone when we're 16.

Unless she is required to write a persuasive essay for school and chooses the topic "Why Teens Should Have Cell Phones" and includes the statement '....so they can alert authorities in case of a natural disaster'....and then you will fold and let her have one when she is 14.
