Someone warned me when I was pregnant with Melia that Sock Monkeys truly do exist. I laughed it off as being silly, but now that I have two children who never have socks, I know she was right, and I am passing on the warning.
However, I am proud to say that I have scored a big one over the Sock Monkeys. Prior to this last weekend, I think the score was probably at least Sock Monkeys 40+, to me.... let's say 10. (Read this as to socks gone missing to socks recovered.)
I had noticed a few times that Melia's socks would be wrapped up in her blankets on her bed, but nearly always *near* her pillow. After a few times, I was inspired (because it takes inspiration to be so brave) and looked behind her bed. Behold! The Sock Monkeys Lair!
Now, the score is closer- and my washer is full of socks getting cleaned, eager to return to their mates. My, those poor socks, they'd been seperated for months I am sure- almost like military sock monkeys were in control...
Sock Monkeys: 40+
Me: 35
It is a game I will never win, but at least I can put up a good fight!
