Parting Comments

Evy washed his hands in my bathroom looked around for a towel.  I showed him the one nearest to him, and instead of reaching for a towel to dry, he flung his hands feverishly around spraying everything with water.

I paused.

The boys were very chatty after being tucked into bed.  Merritt likes to "play" the vent in his room.  He runs his fingers across it and it makes a TWANGGGG sound through the house.

talky.talky.talky.talky.talky.twang.twang.twang.twang.

which means no sleepy.sleepy.sleepy.sleepy

I, very maturely, shushed them from my room with,"SHHHHHHHHH!"

Merritt responded from his room with,"shhhhhhhh!"

Got it.
