Walkie Talkie Wake-Up Call

This morning Theo woke up at 5:30 a.m.!!!! He rose from bed, got dressed, and went downstairs. He got out all the cereal, the bananas, the spoons, the bowls and the milk. Then he unlocked the front door, went down our 43 front stairs and got the three newspapers. He brought them up, and laid them across the bowls of Jonathan and me (the newspaper readers). Then, he snuck upstairs and noiselessly placed a walkie-talkie in the folds of my comforter while I slept.

At exactly 6:05 the walkie talkie crackled to life somewhere around my feed.

"Mommy, Daddy, wake up! Breakfast is ready! Please come downstairs now! Mommy. Daddy! Get up! Your newspapers are here!"
