The BIG BAD DINOSAUR

Today was yet another day that Coop decided not to take a nap. I really shouldn't complain because he was in his room for a good forty minutes and that should have given me plenty of "me" time but I just wasn't ready ...SO I figured if he wasn't going to take one I might as well. So I said those magical words to Coop, "Why don't you lay down in Mommy's bed and I will let you play with my hair!" His eyes lit up and he was like, "Okay!" SWEET!!!
While he was lying there sucking his thumb and playing with my hair. I asked him if he wanted to sing me a song - He responded with, "How about I tell you a story - Mama, have you ever heard of the BIG BAD DINOSAUR??? Once upon a time there was a BIG BAD DINOSAUR and he knocked on the door (and this point of the story he got up to knock on the bed frame) Who is it?? (this was done in a high pitch voice) THE BIG BAD DINOSAUR - CAN I COME IN??? Not by the hair of my chiny chin chin. The End. That was funny!"
And with that he proceeded to go back to playing with my hair and sucking his thumb and I was off to la la land - There is nothing sweeter than your three year old telling you a story before you fall asleep!
