Playing House

Last night we went to Bryan's grandparent's house for Sunday dinner. Peter loves going and especially enjoys playing with the toys in the basement. Bryan was down there with him last night when Peter and his cousin Oliver (who is two years older) had the following exchange:

Oliver: I'm going to play the daddy. Peter you be the mommy.
Peter: No, I'm a boy. I will be the daddy.
Oliver: No, I'm the bigger kid, and that means you do what I say.
Peter: I have the duck. (Holds up duck decoy.)
Oliver: Okay.

I tell you, with those persuasion skills, he should be a lawyer.

Since when did a duck trump height? I will remember the power of the duck. LOL.
