How to play with a 2 year old

Gemma: Mama! Let's play!

Mama: Sure.  (stop what I am doing.  Dishes can wait, right?)

Gemma: We play blocks!

Mama: Sure!  Let's play blocks!

Gemma:  NO! You not sit there.  You sit here. (pats floor 3 inches to the left of where I am sitting).

Mama: Okay!  I'm ready!

Gemma: Yes!  (dumps a bucket of 213092123817 lego blocks on the ground.)  What color you want Mama?  Red or yellow?

Mama: Ummm...I am going to save the red blocks for a creation.

Gemma: No.  No.  You not save red.

Mama: Ok. Ok?  I guess.  I think I will save yellow blocks. (start hunting in the pile for the yellow colored blocks.

Gemma: NO! NO! NO!  You not have yellow blocks.  I have yellow blocks!

Mama: Huh..  Okay....

Gemma: Here.  You save brown blocks.
