I Never Imagined Such Things Would Ever Be Uttered in My Home

"Charlie, will you please be a gentleman and use the bow and arrow so that Qiu Qiu can use the sword?"


And how about this exchange from a few days ago...


Me, standing in front of Charlie's closed bedroom door: It's ok, Charlie. You can come out now.

Charlie: NO!!

Me: Jacinta, you aren't allowed to cut off Charlie's head when he comes out.

Jacinta, standing outside his bedroom door with a sword raised and an evil glint in her eye: I know that.


How did it come to this?

I am so glad that I am not the only one who has children wielding swords and terrifying siblings. :-)
