[M.M.7] puppet parenting.

Welcome back to Monday Mamalogues:
'sharing the beauty and breakdowns of motherhood'!
Every day with a toddler is a new adventure...
...because we role-play all the live long day!

Sometimes I'm this here Ms.Piggy... other days I'm the 'teacher', or 'mama bear', or Joseph in the techni-colour sweater vest.
 Our daughter looooooves to boss us around and direct the performances:
"Ok, now you say this....  and then I'll say this..."
Make believe is so cute, when your kids talk to your puppet as though they're real.
Then, when I play along and say "wow, this cake is delicious!!".. she'll look at me with this serious adult face and say "mom, it's just a plate... it's a pretend cake".

It's kind of stinkin' adorable.

Confession: I may be guilty of using these puppets as a parenting prop.  You know, since a kid is much more eager to obey a pig - than a parent.
Piggy: "Ohhh here's a fun idea.. let's clean up all the toys... Oink oink.. wheeeee!"
Azriel: "OK!!".

Bacon rules.
(Oh yes I went there).
