Scott had a finance meeting tonight so I was on my own to put the boys to bed.
Will was in his pajamas, getting ready for me to read another chapter of "The Finch's Fabulous Furnace," when the Schwan's man knocked on the door.
"Ice cream man alert! Ice cream man alert!" he whispered-yelled to me as I was rocking Charlie to sleep.
"OK. I'll be there in just a second."
I heard Will from the top of the stairs yelling down to the Schwan's guy.
"My mommy is putting my baby brother to sleep. My daddy isn't here right now but my mommy will be with you in just a second."
Grinning at his choice of words, I quietly shut Charlie's door.
Will repeated, "The Schwan's guys is here ... I told him you'd be right down," and then he added, in his loud whisper, "I didn't want him to think I was alone."
