Being Miserable

I promise the Washington, DC, part of the tale is coming, but in the meantime, a bedtime story for you.

Tonight, after reading the boys two books, I tucked them into bed and gave them hugs and kisses. Will thinks I give Ben more hugs and kisses than I give him, so he always holds to my neck and says that he needs more. I kissed him again, then pulled away and went to my room. I came through the hallway a few minutes later, and Will had pulled his quilt and pillow to the top of the stairs and said he was sleeping there. Since this is obviously attention seeking behavior, I ignored it and went back to my room.

He calls to me, "Do you know why I am sleeping in the floor? I am practicing being miserable so I will be ready when everybody is mean to me!"

What do you even say to that? Me? I crack up and then run to my computer to blog about it.

Amy, not only am I astounded by Will's ingenuity to think of something like this, I am even more surprised (and jealous) with your smoothness to handle even the most crazy and hilarious situations. I love that we are friends and I get to hear these great stories.
