Thriller

When I got in from work Declan was excited because Daddy was going to put in a spooky video for us.

It was Michael Jackson’s Thriller video. Started off ok but as soon as Michael Jackson starts changing into a werewolf Declan started shaking and wanted my hand over his eyes. Once that part was over he was good again but he said he needed his eyes closed when the zombies come. Once they reach the graveyard Declan pulled my hands over his eyes and yet his little body was shaking. He told me he didn’t want to see until the zombies start dancing. As soon as the dancing started I took my hand away and he loved it. Once it was over he said “remember when the blood was coming out of the zombies mouth?” To which I replied “how’s you see that? My hands were over your eyes.” He turned to me and with his hands showed me how he could peak through fingers. Then he announced that he was going to have nightmares if I didn’t sleep with him. 

And this is why I slept on the floor of Declan’s room last night.
