How to Put Mom to Bed

Early this evening Mom was so sleepy, she decided to take a quick nap in Mat's bedroom. After a while, Mat went in and saw Mom was half-asleep on his bed. He got Louie the Dog and quietly placed him in Mom's arm. Then he went to get Karyn the Pug, and again, quietly placed her in Mom's arm too, side by side with Louie. Then he went to get a Christmas music box, the one with three angels playing "Silent Night", turned it on and placed it right beside the bed. After all done, he closed the bedroom door so slowly and left Mom alone in peace.

Mom knew everything Mat was doing, and couldn't stand smiling.

Because this is exactly what Mom does to put Mat to bed. Only he will have Woofie the Lab in his arm, and eventhough Mom is not an angel or something in par, she does sing beside Mat before he sleeps.

A child is a wonderful copycat.
