The mints have magic in them!

Squealing excitement reached my ears.

I only took two mints,

But when I opened my hand

There were three

Another magically appeared!


Pale, little waif

Coughingly dons

A cape with a clothespin.


I put this on because

I'm a magician!

The blanket has cards--

That make

magic.

Pomina, pomina, pomina

Pirana---

No! That's not

an amimal!


Pah, pah, pah

Parrot

Puddlejumper


No!

No!


Pig?

Platypus?


Penguin!


Games little boys--

and big boys that think they're

little boys--

Play.

Mommy play with me!

Get the cards.

Teach.

The play of war.


Lay the cards down

Slap

Smack

TIC-TAC-TOE!

With delighted pride.


No, no, no...

You say war.

No, no, no...

I say tic-tac-toe.


Baby brother

Reaches in

Pulls things out.

Rainbow of plastic potato

Scattered about.


Go get the broom.

Time to clean up.
