Gotta love 'er

I put the girls to bed a little while ago. Alex laid down and was asleep within minutes. Greggie, as usual played orangutan for a while and then laid down. I went to the bathroom and when I came out Greggie was sleeping soundly but Alex sat up. "I had a dream, Mother," she said. "Tell me about it, honey." So she did. Then she said, "I want to lie on my tummy and see if I can see more of that dream." I told her, "Okay," and started to leave. Before I could she popped up and said, "We need to clean this house! In the morning, when we wake up. We need to clean." I said, "Okay, we can clean. But why???" "JUST LOOK at that spider web! We NEED to clean!" I turned to see, perfectly illuminated by the porch light that had been left on coming through the bedroom window, a strand of web extending from the nightstand lamp right up to the ceiling. Yup, we need to clean. Not that it matters when you live with 114 spiders.
