We’re at that stage. You know the one if you have ever interacted with a toddler. It goes like this.
“Good night Jeffrey.”
“Gooooood Niiiiiiight!”
Wait….
“I’m skeeered.”
This is followed by any number of various scenarios. It could be the wind. It could be the cars. It could be the wind created by the cars whooshing by. But there was no way that I could have imagined what he was afraid of this time.
“What’s the matter, buddy?”
mumble mumble mumble through tears. Something about making noises.
“What’s making noises?”
mumble tide mumble ale roar
What?
Here’s the final translation after I calmed him down. The nefarious item that was causing him such consternation?
“There’s a side table drawer making noises under my workbench”. No fooling. I asked him several times to be sure. And under his workbench? No drawers of any kind.
Where does he come up with this stuff?
