Blessed are the peacemakers?

Family Night a little bit ago...

The kids were picking on each other (unfortunately that is NOT unusual at our house).  One of them sat too close to someone and wouldn't move over.  A loud "discussion" ensued which succeeded in frustrating the parents and driving the spirit away.

All of a sudden one of the children got up and moved to the floor to stop the contention.

Robyn (grateful): Thank you, ______,  for being a peacemaker!

Peacemaker child:  Well, I had an ulterior motive.  I knew that if I moved, I'd be able to get back to my homework sooner.
