This is the scene that played out today:
Jacob asks me if he can play a game of chess with Noah.  I look around the living room and notice all the toys that have already been taken out and are not being played with.
Me: "Jacob, why don't you go around and pick up everything that is not being played with, then I'll let you take down the chess set."
Jacob: (summons Noah and Kaitlyn over to him.)  "Kaitlyn, go play with the race track baby.  Noah, you go play with the train tracks.  I'll play with the marble run."
                                                       
                                                      * * *
"Okay Mom, everything's being played with, so can I take out the chess set now?"
Hmmmm, looks like he's won this one.
