Mischievous Micah

Ok, Soryda wanted me to tell you about Micah's antics. Our lovely number one son has an obsession with army clothes, a gift by his uncle Eric and aunt Heather. He has been wearing them every day non-stop for the last several weeks. He fights to keep them on at night, even though when he wears them at night, he wakes up freezing in the morning and ends up in the morning in bed with us. In fact, he will actually take off his pajamas and put on his army clothes, AFTER we put him to bed in normal pajamas.



SO--last night, the army clothes needed to washed and we put them in the washing machine, and told him that they were not available. Shortly after we went to bed, we heard a KLUNK and then a BANG, and various other noises that sounded like the house was under construction.





I went out to investigate and found mischievous Micah trying to retrieve his army clothes. He had dragged a stool into the laundry room, used it to turn on the light, and opened up the top of the washing machine in an effort to reach his army clothes. I couldn't believe he'd go to these lengths after bedtime to get his army clothes! What is this obsession? Unfortunately, I sent him back to bed WITHOUT the army clothes. He went with tears--but first thing in the morning, his first words were to remind us that "my army clothes are clean." This kid is unreal.
