And the Mother Of The Year Award goes to... not me

This week it was Raegan's turn to go on a daddy-daughter date. Luke took her to the Dollar Tree where she bought gifts for the entire family. When they returned home everyone was excited as they tore into the shopping bags to see what treasure Raegan had picked out for them. Then it was my turn. I reached into my bag and pulled out... a witch mask.
Thank you?
I made sure to be very gracious. I hugged her and told her that I loved it.
But truth be told... I do love it. Tonight Raegan kept messing around and sneaking out of bed, so I put it on. I sneaked up behind her as she was again out of bed whispering to Zach in the top bunk, and I yelled as deep as I could, "GET BACK IN BED!" She screamed and jumped back into her bed. I got her good. She was trying hard to act mad. As I walked out I said, "I really do love my present Raegan."
