Tot has gone from being my son that needed blackout curtains to a child afraid of the dark. We have been working on this for a couple of weeks now. Talking about the shadows looking different, the noises and what they really are and now for some odd questions… The one he hit me with tonight was “What happens when someone comes out of the TV and into my room?” Yaa, I had a *blink* moment. I explained how the TV was electricity and people can’t jump out of the TV. Never. Then he went on with the “What if they opened the TV and stepped out?”. I talked about the inside of the TV and how it just is not physically possible.
Later, I mention it to my hubby. He reminds me there is a commercial now were they are showing the ghostly hand coming from the TV to the little girl (I believe it is from the movie Poltergeist) for some tv service… I think it is Direct TV. Great. Just what I need for my kids to see when they are having problems with the night. Hubby also reminded me they have seen videos of themselves… yep, I think I’ll be pulling some of those out and showing him how it works.
Another day, another night. We made it!!!!

Folks, I don’t like waffles… nor am I particularly fond of pancakes. But my boys love them. I decided to use my george foreman grill and give the waffles a shot. Hey this should be considered
healthy cooking for my boys. They ate them. Even my hubby. My husband asked me if I tried them yet. That would be “No”. I asked if they were ok and he said yes but a little ‘soft’. Guess I didn’t cook them long enough. Are waffles suppose to be crunchy? They looked done to me. Live and learn. I put this here so in the future when all my kids remember are the days I made them do homework… I can say that I also made them waffles… not just those frozen things.
