batteries

About 15 minutes after Cumorah was put to bed tonight she started wailing, suddenly and intensely. I went in to check on her. Turns out glow worm's batteries were so low that he was stuck on one song and kept quitting before he finished it. I tried the "we'll give him new batteries tomorrow" tactic. Didn't work. I heard her press his button right after I left the room and sure enough, when he cut out she lost it. So glow worm went downstairs to Daddy to get new batteries. (It's the complicated type of change that requires a screwdriver.) Cumorah didn't peep while the batteries were being changed and she smiled her very-pleased smile when her newly rejuvenated glowing friend was returned with fresh brightness and vigor. She's still not asleep though. Glow worm is making too much noise for that. Darn battery operated toys.
