Because I am Evil…
Last night I’d gone to bed early, but hadn’t quite fallen asleep when I heard my youngest asking her father if she could come sleep with me. I couldn’t make out what he’d said, but a few seconds later I heard her feet padding down the hall, then click of the doorknob turning. I laid perfectly still, could tell that she was waiting to see if I was asleep or not, before trying to sneak into bed with me. I waited until she’d just lifted the covers and then–
“Boo!” 
She screamed bloody murder and because I am, as I point out in the subject of this post, EVIL, I laughed until I cried.
“Mommy! How could you do that to me?”
“It was easy. I said, ‘Boo!!!!!!’” and would you believe the kid screamed again?
What can I say? A Mom’s got to get her entertainment in anywhere she can.

Rhonda, you were just paying her back in advance for a night full of kicking, elbowing, flip flopping wiggly-ness. Kids get ants in the pants the minute they hit a grown up’s bed.

That sounds awesome, Rhonda! I’ll have to try that myself sometime… heh! Happy Friday, everybody!

Hilarious!!! Although I won’t be able to use it. We won’t let our kids sleep in our bed. I know, I’m a party pooper.
