whispering

Near the end of his bath tonight, Elias started whispering.

"Goose is barking."

"He is? I don't hear him."

"Be quiet. He's barking."

"
Oh."

The rest of his bath and all before bedtime, he barely spoke above a whisper. While he put on his PJs, we pretended that Graham was sleeping and we had to be quiet, and while we read books I whispered the words to him while he mumbled to himself. He didn't even cry out when it was time to turn out the lights. It was a very nice, quiet way to end the day.
