Shadows and Monsters

Poor scared Thomas. Again, 3:00 and 4:00 in the morning - running through the house to us crying and whimpering. The shadows, the shadows, the shadows.

At 4:00 (keep in mind this is AM!), I thought, okay, light makes shadows, we put the nightlight back in because he was afraid of the dark. Now, he's afraid of the shadows instead. Nightlight unplugged, problem solved.

And it worked. And we all went back to sleep.

This morning we asked if the shadows were gone. "Yes, Thank you Mommy."

It's a good day to be brilliant.
