Prologue~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Jacob! It's time for a bath!"

He giggled and ran away from me in all his naked glory. I chased after my silly boy and grabbed him and lifted him into the air and he laughed. I took him into the bath room and attempted to get him in the tub while the water was still warm. Jacob struggled in my arms and squealed in laughter.  Finally I got him into the tub and began scrubbing the the thin layer of dirt that coated his skin.

After rinsing him clean I pulled him out of the tub and dried him off with a towel before taking him to his room.  I let him run around while I grabbed his pajamas.

"Come on Jacob time to get dressed for bed."  He got a michevious look on his face and a grin sprouted upon his face that was ten miles wide.

"You'll have to catch me first mommy!" He yelled laughing.  I chased him around his small room before picking him up and twirling him around in the air.

"Got chya!" I laughed.  He screamed in laughter and struggled to be released before giving up and pouting as I dressed him.  Suddenly he lit up like a light.  He got up and ran under the covers before popping his head back out and looking at me.

"Bed time story!  Bed time story! Bed time story!" he repeated loudly over and over again.

"OK! Ok, which story do you want tonight?"

"Ummm..." He put his hand on his chin and scrunched up his face in thought, looking absolutely ridiculous.  "Ooh! Ooh!  Tell me the story of Grandpa Labien and Great Aunt Leila! Tell me mommy tell me!  You haven't told it in such a long time!  I think I even forgot how it starts!" He laughed.

"Haha ok Jacob.  Well it starts with the birth of two baby dragons, twins to be exact..."
