Tears

Lizzy has a big stuffed puppy named "Woof Woof".

She got it for her first birthday, and has slept with it ever since... except for those months poor Woof Woof got forgotten at the farm.

Now, when Woof Woof is missing, it's a pretty big deal.

Like when I was putting Lizzy to bed tonight:

Me: "Ok, one book and then it's time to go to sleep."
Lizzy: "But, where's Woof Woof?"
Me: "I think he's downstairs. Do you want to go get him quick?"
Lizzy: "Yes. Hold on."

Lizzy runs downstairs, comes back without Woof Woof.

Me: "Where's Woof Woof?"

Lizzy: "Just read. Fast. Or else the tears will come."

Tears - because she couldn't find Woof Woof.

No worries though.

Big sister Lexi to the rescue, and Lizzy went right to sleep... we didn't even finish the book :)
