"Curious" as we looked around the dimly lit room desires of both a sighting and an escape.
"It's quiet, too quiet" we slowly start to work our way around the bed to break for another room.
"Did you hear that?" as we freeze with the anticipation of fear and excitement, eyes wide, scan the room, then they meet . . . we hesitate . . . then SCREAM!!!!!
Little legs fight frantically but seem frozen in air. "Go, go go go!" Our escape is imminent, through the door and around the corner!
"Watch the stairs!" We look back to see perfect hands reach for the gate, lift it, then attack!
"She got us" is yelped through howls of laughter . . . the monster we had summoned, the tickle monster
And it all started with a call from upstairs and a normal bedtime ritual - "Ma-a, will you come tickle us?!?"
Written for Theme Thursday, come join us, read, write, enjoy!

Thoughts, Passions, Adventures, Stories
I am a follower of Christ after what brings Him the most glory, and honestly it scares me sometimes!
I have an incredible & incredibly beautiful wife (Kristy) I love to be with.
I have 3 amazing sons who are all as rambunctious and adventurous as I am.
I am bent on finding and encouraging men to make the extraordinary seem normal in our pursuit of Christ, our families, and the world.
