It all started last August.
We went to my brother-in-laws house for an afternoon of play, and a BBQ.
For fun, they had all of these plastic bugs sitting in the fruit bowl, and chip bowls etc. The kids thought it was funny, which I assume was the point.
After spending the whole day there, when we went to leave, my brother-in-law, Christopher, slipped Tyler a plastic cockroach, and told him to hide it in daddy's bed.
So, he did. When Kevin found it, he returned the favor by hiding it in Tyler's bed. This has now gone on for 7 months.
Not every single night....but A LOT of them!
It is a game of challenge, and wits. A game that Tyler finds to be THE very best thing EVER! It started with pillows, and sheets, but has spread to current reading books, shoes, and even under the alarm clock. Tyler even waits until after we have said goodnight, and tucked him in and then goes in a hides it, so that it isn't expected or found until we actually go to bed.
So one day.... We found this note... and have LITERALLY not stopped laughing.
Every time we talk about it, we still both tear up.
He left it WITH the cockroach in our bed, under Kevin's pillow.
It was as though he didn't think we would know it was from him, being that it is written in the third person. :)
There is something about the magic of innocence that makes life so fun.
So rewarding!
So beautiful.
These two boys....
don't know...
AT ALL...
What I would do without them!!!
