Electric CareBear
May 8th, 2009 at 16:02 (CareBear stories)
A couple of days ago, it was stormy around here. It’s fairly unusual for us to have the kind of wind and rain we’ve had this week in May, but I like interesting weather. So one windy afternoon, I was giving LiliBee her pre-nap nursing and cuddling session while CareBear was in the living room entertaining herself and watching Backyardigans.
If you know CareBear, you know that she tends to be a noisy kid. She enjoys seeing how loud she can be and screams and yells for fun. People say she’s just like Chris at that age…
Anyway, she’s running around making all kinds of noise when, suddenly, the power goes out. It was only out for about 30 seconds but it caused an unusual silence in the house, including CareBear. I thought she would come find me to ask what happened, but she didn’t.Â
From the living room, I heard her say in an uncharacteristically quiet voice “I think I was too loud“.
