A toddler climbs on a chair, up onto the table. His father dashes from the next room, removes him from the table, and sits him at the bottom of the stairs.
DADA
Conor, you're in time out for standing on the table.
Do we stand on the table?
CONOR
Yes.
DADA
No, we don't.
Brief pause, and Conor begins to pout.
DADA
Conor, do we stand on the table?
CONOR
(arms out)
Hug!
DADA
Conor, do we stand on the table?
CONOR
Yes...Mama...Hug!
DADA
Conor, do we stand on the table?
CONOR
No...Hug!
Time out ends and Dada gives Conor a hug.
Conor giggles and heads for the table.
---The End---
Between the hugs and the giggles who can keep a straight face????? (not Mimi for sure!!)
ReplyDeleteIf you substitute Maggie for Conor and Brian for Tim, I think I've seen that play in our house before. :)
