“Mommy she said there’s a MONSTER under my bed come quick, look, his eyes are red” “what I said, there’s no monster under your bed” I fear little one you’ve completely lost your head” “well I can see his eyes and hear his growl, and he moved a little closer to the edge just now” “and see look there’s his paw trying to grab me she said” “mommy I swear there’s a monster under my bed” “ok I am coming to see what the fuss is about”, and she stared at me with those big green eyes excited and nervous as I took a look to find she was right in the dark hour of this night a Monster under the bed and his eyes did glow red so I put my hands in to pull him out and as I did she gave a shout "see I told ya so" as her eyes lit up he didn’t growl or look so tough in fact he was cute with his little green eyes and then she looked at me in surprise a little giggle escaped her lips and she said “OH hunter” its only you and she gave him a kiss then I knew she’d go back to sleep with sweet dreams and all as I left her room and headed down the hall I swear again she giggled and said hey mommy told ya so to the monster under the bed….. ~~~~ Meet the little Monster Under the Bed Hunter….. I keep a fragrance bottle my muse gave me when I met him in endless winter and he settled me into remembering who I am. |

Ah Lauren this was so cute, and very sweet. Nice to see a little green-eyed rhyme for the girls too. I bet they love the stories their Mommy tells too |

GreenEyes~ You brought back some tender memories with this one~ One of ours was called the "YaHa Monster" ... and then we had the "Not ME Monster" ... Each of my four children have special memories of the monsters that lived at our home when they were small~ This is surely a moment for you~ AND ... for them when they grow up~ (OH, Heaven forbid ... but they do exactly that !) *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, |
