Lost in (Toddler) Translation

(Screams are heard coming from the play room.  The mom enters.)

Mom:  Hey, you guys aren't playing peacefully.

Toddler 1:  Pizza?  I WANT PIZZA!!  (raises her hand with great joy)

Toddler 2:  ME!  ME!  Pizza!!  (raising his hand as well)

Mom:  No.  There's no pizza.  If you guys don't play nice together, one of you has to play on the other side (pointing to barrier recently built out of blocks to divide room for just such occasions).

Toddler 1:  Outside?  I want to go outside!!

Toddler 2:  Me!  Outside!!

(Mom gives up.)
