Negotiations

Me:  Come on guys, let's go downstairs your going to wake Daddy.

Hannah:  Were not ready, we're having a sleepover.  We can't do that downstairs.

Me: Your being too noisy.

Hannah:  We will be quiet.

Ethan:  I want to go downstairs.

Hannah: Noooooo

Ethan:  I want to go downstairs with my sister.

Hannah: (using her teacher voice and getting down at his level, so really in his face) How about we play upstairs for (holds up 6 fingers) this many minutes and then we can go downstairs.  How does that sound?

Ethan:  Okay

So they ran back into Ethan's closet to have a sleepover.
