a MUMU story!



I want to share this story with you guys in the spirit of HALLOWEEN!!!


On a cold stormy night, with the wind howling, I was working on my laptop (yes, you read it right - lazy me was actually working!) while Gabie was busy playing on the floor in my room! She suddenly ran to me and quickly jumped on the bed. She burrowed her face in my pillow and in a panicked voice said, "Mommy, I'm scared! I'm scared!!!" She then repeated the phrase several times! I'm like, "Scared of what?". While I quickly scanned our surroundings. She then said, "There is a MUMU Mommy!!" Uhm, at that point, I'm tried to act all cool and say, "No, there isn't any!" She insisted there was one and pointed towards the spot where she was. I tried to laugh and make light of the situation and said "Oh, Gabie, what is the mumu doing?". I tickled her and asked "Is it dancing like Barbie?". She shook her head and said "NO!" So I then asked "Ah, is it eating?" She again said "Nooooo!" Stupid me should have stopped, but I then asked "What is it doing then?" Gabie then replied, "Mommy, it's LOOKING AT YOU!!!"
I should have grabbed her and ran out the room. But for some reason, I just continued to sit on the bed and stayed in the room. Eventually, she said "No more mumu!" I'm hoping my naughty daughter just has a wicked sense of humor! Hahaha!
Everything you just read is a TRUE STORY. (Oh alright, I embellished a tiny bit with the weather. Hahaha! It just sounds better with the story rather than mild rain and a windless night!)
So how's your Halloween !?!
