It was sunny today. After my swim lesson, I learned a new prank – short-sheeting. Without reckoning (thinking?), I decided to try it out on Mom. While she was out, I folded her blanket in half and tucked one end under her pillow, leaving the other end loose, so she would be more likely to slide into the compartment I had made. Then I covered it with another blanket to make it look normal. Later, Mom fell for it! She screamed when she tried to tuck in. She was stuck! I pretended to be surprised and told her she was growing too fast. Deep down, I knew she was just playing along. It was so obvious; who uses two blankets in summer? I love Mom.
