Mosquito Stops Time?




Can a mosquito stop time?  The answer in 3 minutes or less...

Bedtime...
Cuddling and snuggling...happy time!
Getting our reading on!
Story giggles...conversation and wondering...
Reading...chatting...
Feeling sleepy...
Lights out-click, click, click!

bzzzzzzzz
                                                  zzzzz    z z                         zzz         zz

zz
                          zzz                           z                                 zzz                zzz


zzzzzzz                             zzzz                                 zz


"Mommy, I hear a mosquito buzzing!"
"Me too!"

Lights on--CLICK!
Hunting for the swatter...eyes darting around the room to find the tool that will end the zzzz-ing!

Nothing in view-a big tissue!
Arms flying through the air-the elimination process has begun!

zzzzz                    zzz                 
                                                                            zzzzzzzzzzz

"Where'd it go?"
"There it is Momma-up by the clock!!"
SWAT!
SWAT!
SWISH
"Ugh!  I missed it!"

SWAT
SWAT
STRETCH-ST-R-ET-CH!
CRASH!
"What was that?" called Daddy from the other room.
"The clock!  I knocked the clock off the wall while swatting the stupid mosquito!"

Dead mosquito, broken clock!  It stopped time...yes, it stopped time!  Now no time!
