Playing Fair.....

fair/fe(ə)r/

Adjective: In accordance with the rules or standards; legitimate.

The boys are really into playing 'fair' these days. Whether they are having a gun fight, tic tac toe, or in this case Candy Land - playing fair is really important. The sad thing is, they really aren't quite sure what the definition of fair is. And, well, it's just too comical to correct them.

Today, for instance, I hear shouting while they are playing Candy Land. "Mom, Drew's playing fair." "No, Mom" says Drew, "I am playing not fair, I promise."

Hence the lack of desire to correct them.
Commence the stomach aching laughter.
