Boo!

Every night I go up and get The Girl ready for bed – make sure teeth are brushed, clothes ready for the morning, room is not a total disaster, and do some reading.

When we are done with our routines I call down to Mike so he can come and say goodnight. While I am doing this The Girl hides somewhere to jump out and scare him.
Tonight she snuck through her Jack-and-Jill bathroom and hoped to follow him back into her bedroom and sneak up form behind. This was the first attempt.

The Boy came up with Mike and hung out with me while Mike started searching for The Girl. She delayed too ling in following him in and by the time she snuck in, Mike had gone through the bathroom looking for her. She went after him and them Mike appeared through the bedroom door – they must have done the circuit three times before they figured out why The Boy an I were laughing so hard. No scare tonight, but it was a great laugh.

He best scare was when Mike though Gracie was hiding in her bathroom, but she was actually using it. – they both screamed for real that time! It has been added to “Remember When” series of great family stories.
