The aftermath (with Tom and Jerry.)
You should know that The Pixie has a thing for kitties. As in, during pretend play there is always someone strong and somewhat violent and then there is a kitty.
Like:
“I’m a transformer!” “And I’m a kitty.”
or
“I’m Batman!” “And I am his little kitty.”
or
“This is my really cool hero!” “And this is my kitty.”
or
“I’m going to save everybody!” “And my kitty will help.”
It was presumptuously idiotic of me to borrow her a cheerleader costume for Halloween.
I was chastised and so quickly traded the cheerleading outfit for the kitty one.
And The Pirate was a really cool hero who saved everybody…
And The Princess was a beautiful ballerina…
And I was practically perfect in every way.
Because in my pretend play… that’s what I am.
