The kids have been playing “dress-up” and make believe quite often lately.  Together.  Without bickering.  It’s been fun for me to sit back and watch the plot lines develop and the creative interactions take place.  And of course I love the costumes.  Sam is particularly partial to the pirate ensemble.  And even though mama frowns upon toy guns he has of course designed his own from Kinex, and he has perfected his “Arrgh Matey”.
