"Mommy!" I call from downstairs.
"Whatcha' need munchkin." She says walking down the stirs with a laundry basket in hand.
"Buster chewed one of my Barbies!" Mom looks to our Great Dane Buster. "Buster shame on you!" She walks over to me. "Which one was it? Bella, Britney, Nicole, Megan or was it one of the boys? Please don't be Ken!" She sets down the laundry basket on the chair and kneels down next to me. I frown and cross my arms.
"It was Britney." I pout. Mom gasps.
"Not Britney!" She gives me one of her weird looks. "Do you know what this means?" Her words intrigue me. "What?"
"The tickle monster has to come to town!" She takes her arms out from behind her and starts tickling me all over. I giggle uncontrollably.
"Mommy!" I shout over my giggles. She pulls up my shirt and blows on my stomach. This just makes me giggle more. "Stop it!" I giggle. She tickles me with laughter for a little longer then gives up. "Okay, I gotta go do some work, we will go out to the store later and get a new Britney. Okay?" My mother asks me.
"Okay mommy." I smile and turn back to my doll house and reengage with my play.
