A Day with Momma and around the House

Well, Joey got to spend the day with momma. She took him with her to work today because he had a little bit of a restless night. First off, we have had a red fox coming around the house the last few nights. If you have never heard a red fox cry or bawl at night you have no idea what I am talking about. Lets just say it is something between a baby screaming after getting stuck by a pin, and two cats mating. We had the sliding door in our bedroom open to let in some spring air in the middle of the night, but that also allowed the sound of the red fox to carry right into our bedroom. Well Joey hears that about 3am and had to let us know there was something out there that should not be. Well I got up to close the door and got him to hush and go back to sleep on the end of our bed. About 4am my wife wakes me up and said Joey is itching like crazy, I think he has more tics on him. Well I got up and took Joey downstairs got my eyeglasses on and my lighted tweezers and found 3 more on him. He went back to bed with me and I was able to get a few more hours of sleep before I had to go to work. I love him. My son came over during thanksgiving and when he walked in he saw Joey's toys all over the living room floor and says "Geez dad you never let me leave my toys on the floor like this!" I say to him " David you never had this many toys when you were little." I told my daughter she needs to hurry up and have us a grandbaby because momma is going to spend all our extra money on toys for Joey. It seems like when he gets a new stuff toy that squeaks he is on a mission to tear it open and get the squeaker out of it leaving stuffing all over the house. Well at least it is not my shoes or my furniture.
