My sister said I should do a follow up to the post a few weeks ago, “Counting Shoes”. She said my level of gullibility and naivete may have just been more than anyone, especially her, could stomach.

Without going into too much detail of why the rules have recently changed in our house, they have.

“All girlfriends must be gone from the residence by the time parents are in bed. “

After much thought I believe that should do it. So far so good, I have been doing “bed checks” every night, just like the old days. I used to tuck Tristan in and give him a good night kiss. No way will that happen anymore, but hopefully the new rule will keep him just as safe. At home in bed…alone!
