cANDY Land: Part 2

Bradley has played a lot of Candy Land with his Dad recently. It is one of the perks of having our Dad home with us! The other day while Daniel and Eliza were napping I took the opportunity to finally get threw the shower. Bradley talked Andy into playing Candy Land. They were both getting very close to the end of the game. They ended up on the same color with only a couple draws left. Bradley drew the pink Gingerbread card. Andy started laughing in his face and promptly marched his piece all the way back to the beginning. He was surprised at how calm Bradley was about the whole thing. Andy was proud of how well Bradley was taking it. He was sure Bradley was learning that it is okay not to win every time...it is just a game!

After a couple more draws Andy danced his piece across the finish line first. Bradley started smiling and said, "I win Dad!" Andy replied, "No you didn't, I did." Then Bradley shocked him when he said,"No Dad. Mine is the blue on, yours is the red one." Sure enough the red one was back at the beginning and the blue one had finished FIRST!

Moral of the story: Make sure you know which piece belongs to you before you laugh at some one and move them to the beginning!
