Conversations with Daddy

(at night, both kids in bed, Blu tucking them in)

Caedmon: But Daddy I get scared in the night. I hear a loud sound that goes BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, and I think it might be an elephant coming into the house!

Daddy: It's not an elephant Caedmon. Do you want to know what it really is? You know how when you get cold, your body gets all tense? Well, the boards on the roof get cold, and they get all tense so then they pop and go BOOM, BOOM, BOOM.

Caedmon: Oh. Or it could be an elephant.

Daddy: No, it couldn't. An elephant wouldn't fit through the door.

Cambree: Daddy. It could turn sideways.

Caedmon: Yeah, and then it would scrape its leg. Right Daddy?

Daddy: Good night.....
