Iris spent the day swimming and playing with a neighbor and old friend from daycare and Montessori school.  This gave me three blissful hours on my own this morning.  In the afternoon, I told his parents that the two kids could play at my house until my Genius Bar appointment at the Apple Store in Manhattan Beach. 
(BTW, Apple Genius Tony rocks.)
When I gave the 5 minute warning to collect their stuff and head to the door, they groaned in unison, "But we were just about to begin our knife fight!"
I stayed perfectly calm.  You see, she has several plastic knives in her play kitchen and make-believe box.  It's hard to get upset at pastel pink and purple plastic knives.  Nevertheless, I declared the playdate over.
