Conversations with Jack #1

I have so many funny conversations with Jack these days that I want to make an effort to document them so I don't forget. So, I think I will add this topic as a part of my semi-regular posting.

After putting Jack to bed, I often take a few minutes to play around on the computer while I wait for him to fall asleep. Because the office is just a few feet from his bedroom, this works out well. Last week, while waiting for him to go to sleep, I heard him call out to me. I answered from the office, not wanting to enter his room and give him a reason to get out of bed. Here is our conversation:

Jack: Mommy! Monsters in the closet?

Me: No, there are no monsters in your closet.

Jack: Monsters in the wall?

Me: No, no monsters in the wall.

Jack: Monsters under the bed?

Me: No. There are no monsters under your bed. Go to sleep!

Jack: Mommy! I can't find my monsters!
