Dear Kid,

Puppy: Mom
Me: Yes, baby
Puppy: MOM
Me: What?
Puppy: There’s a monster in the house
Me: I don’t think there’s a monster
Puppy: I heard it
Me: What exactly did you hear?
Puppy: That!
Me: That was not a monster
Puppy: What was it?
Me: That was your tummy
Puppy: Whaaaaat?
Me: Yes
Puppy: Noooo….
Me: Yes

 

Puppy: That noise was not my tummy
Me: No, that was not your tummy
Puppy: It was a monster
Me: No, not a monster
Puppy: Monster
Me: No, that was you
Puppy: What? I didn’t bark
Me: No, sweetie. The other end of you
Puppy: Make it stop! It’s scary!
Me: Whew! Kinda scary for me too. No more snacks for you

Love, Mom
