Ghosts

Mia's been freaked out about ghosts lately. They're in her room at night, pestering her and scaring her to death, and sometimes, they fly under her covers, causing a screeching cry in the middle of the night. Tired of getting woken up in the middle of the night because of the "ghostis," I took Mia to the neighorhood hardware store. I walked in and asked the man at the front counter where the nightlights are located. He walked us over to that section, and when we came upon the lights, I asked him if they carry any lights that scare the ghosts away. He said "Oh yeah, this one," pointing to a standard nightlight. I grabbed that light, and went to the clerk to check out. While paying, I said to the man, "Now this one scares the ghosts away, right?" He replied, "Oh yes, this one definitely keeps them away." Mia was all smiles as we headed toward the car. The best part was it only cost $2.49 + tax to regain my sleep at night. So awesome!
