Library [04/28]

Sam didn't have to open the library today, with classes being over and all, but he was pretty sure Maggie would never forgive him if he didn't let her near the books that were here.

"Don't touch anything bad!" he said as she took off running into the stacks. "I'll know if you do!"

He wasn't sure if anyone else would want to bring their kids by, but it was worth a shot.

Maria thought for a second. "Are the uniforms pretty?"

"Good question," Peter admitted. "I wasn't much older than you, so I have to admit I wasn't looking at the girl uniforms too much."

"If they're pretty, then they're okay," she said. "Did you like it there?"

Oh the joys of trying not to be a bad influence on your own children.

"I like it better here," Peter said, glancing at Sam. "But that's for high school. For elementary we'd want you closer to home. Actually we'll see if we even let you leave the house. We may wait until you're 80."

"I like the sound of that a lot," Sam said, smiling at Peter. "We can keep you home where you'll be nice and safe."

"But I'll be oooold!" Maria protested.

"Nuh-uh," Peter said. "You'd still be younger than us."

"But you'll be super old! Like a hundred and fifty!"

"I think math skills might be the first thing to work on," Sam said, laughing.

"Hey, that's all you," Peter said. "Math I do not su... uh, do bad at."

"Nice save," Sam said.

"Does Daddy have to put money in the Bad Word Jar?" Maria asked around a mouthful of donut.

Sam laughed. "No. We have a Bad Word Jar?" he asked. "Chew and swallow before you answer."

Maria was quiet for a few moments as she did as she was asked. "I called a mean lady in the grocery store the bad b-word and now we have the jar and you have to put a dollar in it every time you say something bad and I didn't get to see Uncle Dean for a whole month."

"Did we monitor your phone calls?" Peter asked. He came from a family of lawyers. He knew that saying Maria couldn't see Dean didn't necessarily mean he wasn't being an influence.

Maria nodded. "I'm only allowed to talk on the phone to you, Dad, Uncle Nathan, and people trying to sell stuff 'cause I make them go away."

Okay that was too cute. "How do you do that?" Peter asked.

"I sing at them," Maria said. "And if they don't go away still, I talk really loud."

"Do I ever have you do that to Uncle Nathan?" Peter asked. Because Uncle Dean wasn't the only one who could deserve that kind of thing.

Maria nodded. "Sometimes he asks stuff about you and Dad and you tell me to sing until he stops."

"That's my girl," Peter said. He broke off a piece of his donut and offered it to her as a reward.

Maria bounced and took the offering. "Best Daddy ever."

"Hey," Sam said, giving her a pout.

"Best daddies ever," Maria replied.

"You still like me more though, right?" Peter said, obviously joking.
