playing "pretend"

I went to get Pepe from his bed after his afternoon nap. Lately, he has been asking me to get into his crib with him, which I also did today. We snuggled a bit and then Chris came and got Pepe out of the crib. Next, I started pretending I was Pepe...
AM (pretending to be P): Mommy, can you lay down on the ground with me...
P (Pretending to be mommy): OK, but only for one minute.
AM: I want something...chocolate
P: No, not now.
AM: I want something to drink.
P: No, mommy, I mean no Pepe.
AM (with my leg up): I want to get out. I want to sleep in mommy and daddy's bed.
P: No, you can't
AM: But I am lonely
P: Well, you can use your imagination....You have your friends in bed with you, too.
AM: I want the light on
P: I am going now, you have to sleep. And tomorrow we will have fun....
