So, E has this set of weapons she got for her birthday a while ago. It was a birthday where she was given gifts by many friends that fit with her wish list: Barbie, Littlest Pet Shop and dollies galore. When another kid showed up at her birthday party with a play set that was a sword, shield and axe, she was delighted. That's my girl.
The sword, unfortunately, did not stand up to the melee battles that ensued. It broke in half. So tonight, she went outside, on the advice of her daddy, and filed down the edges of the new tip of the sword on the pavement outside. It's now a dagger.
Conversation that took place at our house tonight:
Me: please go put on your pajamas.
E: hrm. (waves dagger at me)
Me: No brandishing daggers at your mom.
Daddy: There's no waving daggers at your parents at our house.
Yes, we have to have rules about weapons up in this piece. Bring it, non nerd parents. Bring it.
