A List

A list of some of the possible reasons Julia might need to get out of bed at night and come into our room.


1.) To tell us her air conditioner is making a weird noise.
2.) To tell us her air conditioner is still making a weird noise.
3.) To tell us her air conditioner WAS making a weird noise, but now it stopped.
4.) To tell us she thought she heard something, but she's not sure what.
5.) To tell us she needs to pee.
6.) To tell us she just went to the bathroom to go pee.
7.) To tell us she can't fall asleep.
8.) To tell us she's afraid she won't ever fall asleep.
9.) To ask us when the pool closes for the summer.
10.) To tell us she can't decide if she'd rather go to the aquarium or to the pool on the last weekend that the pool is open for the summer..
11.) To ask us what if there's a thunderstorm and lightning strikes our house.
12.) To ask us what if there's a thunderstorm and lightning strikes our solar panels.
13.) To ask us what if there's a thunderstorm and lightning strikes her air conditioner.
14.) To ask us what if there's a thunderstorm and lightning hits a tree and the forest catches on fire.
15.) To ask us what if there's a thunderstorm and lightning hits a tree and the tree falls on our house.
16.) To tell us what page she's on in the book she was reading before bed.
17.) To tell us she WAS feeling sleepy, but then she STOPPED feeling sleepy.
18.) To tell us she WAS asleep, but then she woke up.

This is just a sampling.  I'm sure Julia will continue to come up with ever more creative reasons for needing to stop by during the night.  I mean, there's always the chance that she WAS feeling sleepy and her air conditioner WAS making a weird noise, but then it STOPPED making the noise and she STOPPED feeling sleepy, right?
