Tap, tap, tap.

What’s that noise?

Tap, tap, tap.

Mom, don’t you know it’s bedtime?

Tap, tap, tap.

Full-body shake.

Tap, tap, tap.

Mom, are you working?

It’s bedtime.

Tap, tap, tap.

“Sorry, Bubbies.”

Ooh, booty scratches.

All is forgiven.

“I’m almost done for tonight. I promise.”

Okay.

Because it’s bedtime.

Circle, circle, circle.

Plop.

I’m going back to sleep now.

Tap, tap, tap.

Zzzzz . . .
