2am. This was the reason. This adorable little poky………MONSTER! OK, that is me getting a bit nuts about this sweet little porcupine. I’m sure he’s not a monster.
But this sweet little poky guy was the reason for me being up at 2am. He gave my child nightmares all night. How? Why? It’s a mystery. All I know is I had a tug at my sheets saying, “Mommy can I sleep with you? I had a nightmare that a porcupine was poking me.”
Really?
Really.
And so, let it be known to never read your child a book about porcupines before bed. It may lead to YOU being up all night too.
