This morning, I woke my daughters up at 6:45am, as usual.
Scruffy was in Sphinx pose at the foot of Aeron's bed, looking inscrutable. Claire was wrapped in blankets like a large fuzzy purple burrito. Boo had the covers over her head and was lying perfectly still, so I wouldn't know she was awake.
Me: "Good morning, girlies! Time to get up!"
Girls: ...
Me: "Boo. Don't forget you need to write in your journal."
I whipped the covers off her and discover she was butt naked. Again. I un-rolled the Claire-burrito and she moaned in disapproval.
Me: "Up! Clothes! Shoes! Now!" I went back to Boo's bed. and when I leaned on it, I felt something hard.
It was a thick, chewed-on T-Bone.
Me: "Why is this in your bed?!"
Her: "It's cool."
PS: On the way to school, I asked the child where the beef bone came from.
Her: "I found it at church!"
