The Things Kids Say
One summer evening during a violent
thunderstorm a mother was tucking her small boy into bed．She was about to turn off the light when he asked with a
tremor in his
voice，“Mommy，will you sleep with me tonight ？”
The mother smiled and gave him a
reassuring hug． “I can' t，dear．” She said．“I have to sleep in Daddy's room．”
Along silence was broken at last by his shaky little
voice：“The big
sissy．”
