Overnight Stay

Jump!  Jump!  Jump!  Giggle!

The sounds coming from behind the closed door gained the attention of the older couple sitting in the living room.  The two looked at each other.

“What’s going on in there?”  Grandpa growled.

“I’ll go find out.”

Grandma got up off the couch and headed down the hallway toward the spare bedroom where her two granddaughters were suppose to be sleeping.  She opened the door sending two children scrambling to get under the covers amidst a burst of laughter.

“Hey. No jumping on the bed.”  Grandma said in mock anger.

“Read us another story.”  They chimed.
