Elisa, at 7 years old, likess to talk about her imaginary world: Princess Land. She can talk on and on about who lives there, what they wear, random sounds that are actual words there, and the various rules governing the place. Of course none of it is realistic, but she loves to imagine how different it is.
The other day Benjamin had a little fun. I doubt he was trying to pester her, but it did. "What if zombies invade Princess Land?" he asked.
"No. There are no zombies in Princess Land," Lisy replied.
"But they found a way in. Then they started attacking and infecting everyone," he continued.
"Arg!" she exclaimed. "There are zombies in Princess Land! I didn't want any zombies in Princess Land!"
I tried to help, "It's okay, sweety. It's your imaginary land. Zombies don't have to be there if you don't want them there," I encouraged.
"It won't work, Mom. Ben said it and now that's all I can think about," she complained. "The zombies are in Princess Land and they're attacking the princesses."
Oh, Benjamin had fun with that.
