time to make the doughnuts

after this week's face plant will has been getting out of bed. by himself. on both feet. it's been kind of weird. since i am not used to having anyone walk around the house at random and then all of a sudden a child is walking around. when the last time i saw him i had put him in his bed. kind of startles you like when you see a mouse out of the corner of your eye. in your car. he has been really good about it. until this morning. i was sleeping on the couch. no shocker there. i heard a thump on the floor. i opened my eyes to see that it was pitch black out. i heard will open his door. very loudly. he can barely get to the door handle. because he has to carry out his paddington bear, his pillow and percy. all at the same time. anyway, next thing i knew i was getting a paddington bear, a pillow and a percy in my face. and this is the conversation that followed:

will: oh, hi! good morning!

me: good morning! oh, honey it's still dark out. it's not time to get up yet.

will: (pausing) hmmmm. i know! i have a great idea! i'll turn the light on!
