While in the bathtub another kid on the outside of the door started banging it and shaking the door knob. I jokingly said to Gideon that it's a monster. Gideon got scared and clung to me and hid behind my back. After a time, Gideon calmed down and played and washed up. When I said that I was going, Gideon said no, no, pointed to the door and said ROAR!
I suggested going a few more times with the same result. Finally, I told Gideon that Dad had gotten the monster out and we were safe now.
Gideon pointed to the door and said ROAR gone? I said yes and Gideon climbed out of the bathtub. When I told the story Gideon checked up with me and asked, "Dad, roar, gone?"

That is such an adorable story. Monsters do like to come and go in our children's lives. It best when they are gone.
Blessings and hugs!
