Sally: "Stop! Stop playing with my tea set!"
Samuel: "Me want to play with em!"
Sally: "Noooooo!"
Samuel: "Eeehhhhh!"
Me: "Sally, why can't Samuel play with your tea set?"
Sally: "He's going to use real water and get them all wet!"
Samuel: "No I not. I tending."
Sally: "OK"
Me: to Samuel "You aren't going to use real water?"
Samuel: "No. I fine. I using tend water."
Round Two:
Sally: "Samuel, bring the crackers back!"
Samuel: "No, they for my family!"
Sally: "I am your family."
Samuel: "No you not."
Sally: "Yes, actually I am."
Samuel: "No, but you want to be? It's wike my team. You want to be my team?"
Sally: "I just want some crackers."
Writing this down, it's all cutesy. Living through it, well, that's another story.

I can just hear Sally correcting Samuel "Yes, Actually, I am." I know she was all ready to present him with proof.
hahaha
yah..u r right...
reading and writting it is different from living it...
but still cute...
Do all children fight? I am completely in the dark about this, being an only child.
Those are pretty sophisticated concepts for a two year old!

K - I think all siblings do fight. I could be wrong, but in my experience, all the siblings I know fight from time to time. It's normal. I had a very wise speaker at a MOPS tell us to be very careful when intervening in the sibling fights, to not create an agressor and a victim. Also, it's a great way to help your kids learn conflict resolution, if you just stay out of it. Easier said than done, though.
