Pesky Poltergeists

Spencer (3) and I were brushing our teeth in the bathroom. I told him to go put his blanket on my bed. He did, and came running back. And then he said, "But what if a ghost comes and takes it?"

Um. I don't know. Take it back?

He's been talking a lot about ghosts and monsters lately. Sometimes he is upfront about knowing they are pretend. Other times he seems genuinely worried. He was fairly sure he saw a woman outside our car in the dark last night, who was a ghost. (I allowed myself to be creeped out by that for a quick moment. Think of the YA fiction possibilities!)

The imagination is going to be strong in this one. Strong and perhaps troublesome. But I'd rather he be plagued with too much imagination than not enough. It'll make his life interesting.
