Monies

Last night Jake went to bed with his flashlight and his little owl book.  Such a cute book because the kid owl wants to go to bed but the mommy and daddy owls make him stay up and play and read stories and drink water.  Anyway, all of a sudden Jacob is yelling and I send his dad in to go see what’s the matter… again.

James’ foggy recollection is that he entered the room in the dark and Jake said, “Daddy, monies?!”
And then Daddy said, “What money?”
And then Jake pointed a freightened little finger at his open mouth.
Daddy asked, “You swallowed it?”
And Jake answered sheepishly, “Yeah.”

I’m not totally sure that any monies actually went down the hatch.  I found a penny under him as I completed a frantic search and seizure of two pennies and a dime that were covertly smuggled into his crib.  So, we don’t know if any coins were ingested, but I’m guessing we’ll know soon enough…
