Recently, the following conversation / fierce argument was overheard at our house:
Henry to Bronwen: Santa's not real, you know.
Bronwen: He is too!
Henry: No, he isn't. He's just Mom & Dad.
Bronwen: Well, Shakespeare's not real!
Henry, indignantly: Oh, yes, he is.
Bronwen: No, he isn't! Shakespeare isn't real!
Henry, now hot (he ramps up quickly, in case you didn't know, particularly in such dire situations when heroes are threatened.): Bronwen, Shakespeare WAS TOO REAL! He wrote hundreds of plays! You don't know what you are talking about!
This conversation continued with much of the same back and forth while I laughed in the other room until I feared they might come to blows and had to break it up. Too funny! Ever since, when Bronwen wants to get his goat, (which basically means she's bored because her brothers are doing homework and she wants their attention,) she pipes up with "Shakespeare isn't real, you know!"
It gets them every time.
Funny, she just let the accusations about Santa roll right off her back and turned the tables lickety-split. Smart cookie, that one.

I was going to comment on this a few weeks ago, but I was too lazy. Anyway, this is hilarious! I laugh every time I think about this. It's so Bronwen too.
Go Bronwen!!
OH that's funny!
