Damn you monsters. Leave Bobby alone!!
I just got the morning report from Ken and apparently the reason Bobby was in our room last night was due to the monsters. There are apparently hundreds of them in his room. We have give this kid magic wands, a monster killer (squirt bottle), monster killer friends (Shrek, Spike, and all the various other critters on his bed), and even a magic monster wand my folks gave him. This kid still is being bombarded by the monsters. He told Ken that those things don't work anymore.
It also sounds like the whole house is under attack. There are, per Bobby, monsters in our room. Ken tricked him in to realizing this wasn't true by pointing out that Lycos sleeps in our room, and she chases away all the monsters. Luckily he bought it and was able to sleep in our room.
So this makes tonight special. I need to figure out a new way to battle the evil that resides in his room. One idea from Ken was perhaps baby powder in a special container that he can sprinkle on the bad monsters. I added to this pointing out that I have some sparkly body powder that he could use, that way it looked cool. I also wondered if we got him one of those crappy Buzz costumes (the one he has wouldn't survive this) to use as jammies, since monsters won't get Buzz. However, then this should work with Superman, too, so perhaps we will try that first. Also, this afternoon, we will need to go through his entire room to make sure all the monsters are gone before bed time. Worst case scenario, I will bust out the special glow sticks I found that are actual wands. They even have a star on the top, so they look like cool wands. So hopefully that would work. I just hate to bring out the big guns since really, these were at the Dollar Tree, so who knows how long they would have them for and they only last a night. I suppose then I will need to make my own, which is doable. I may need to head down to Michael's.
The other thing I will be doing later on is looking on line for monster solutions. I know that I am not the only mom out there who has had an infestation of monsters in her house. If only there was some service of people that come out with some kind of big show where they are able to convince kids that the monsters are gone. I would so pay for that. Hell, maybe I need some solutions and I can start doing this for people. I wonder if anyone else would pay for this?

A Boy with Autonomic Dysfunction - The Miller Family
Our Special Life
Oliver was born after having suffered a stroke while in his mother's womb. The resulting brain injury is called Dysautonomia (Autonomic Dysfunction). His doctors believe the stroke was the result of the miscarriage of his twin. Oliver is completely blind and his underdeveloped brain stem makes basic physical functions a challenge. In spite of all this, he is a happy, go-lucky, 12-year-old boy, and his mom wants people to meet the real Oliver, not just his medical hardships.
