Boys
Last night RM and I were trying to settle down to sleep for the night, but the TR and SW were in the next room making just a bit too much noise. Since we were already settled down under the covers, I knocked on the wall gently to remind them to keep it down.
RM thought knocking on the wall was pretty funny, and she stood up on the bed to reach up over the headboard and knock a couple of times herself. One of the guys knocked back. RM’s eyes got very wide, and she sat down and scooted up close to me. She was looking all around the room, spooked by the mysterious sound.
It was so funny to watch, but I also wanted to quickly reassure her that it wasn’t anything scary. I told her, “It’s OK, it was just the boys.”
She immediately relaxed as if this explained everything. She said, “Ahh, boys.”
