Hammers and ghosts

Madeleine and Anja went to town during their play-date today, very loudly, very persistently, and very delightedly hammering on a dining room chair:




Things took a more violent turn, however, after Anja left, when Madeleine began wielding her hammer and chasing Julia around the living room exclaiming, "I gon BONK you! Juwia! I gon BONK you Juwia!"

Despite Julia's varied approaches to this threat, including screaming, politely asking "Please don't bonk me," and running away, Madeleine continued to find the game amusing. Julia's last ditch effort was to simply hide:



While she failed to fool her sister as to her whereabouts, Julia was at least successful in distracting Madeleine from her hammer-bonking game. Stopping still in her tracks, Madeleine proclaimed, "Look Mom! Julia's hiding under the GHOST!"
