Morgan Story

Morgan and her friend were playing in Morgan's room. I heard a scream, so I went to see what the problem was. 

Two sheepish looking girls were there.

Emily: "What's going on here?"

Morgan: (Fake laughing... her way of making me at ease...) "Oh Mom... (laughing) we were doing something so funny... that you won't think is funny."

Emily: "What?"

Morgan: "We were hitting each other."

(Yes, for fun. They weren't fighting.)

Emily: (Horrified. And a little shocked.) "Well stop it. No hitting. And while you're at it, no biting or kicking or spitting or anything else that would be gross or mean."

Crazy kids.
