#1 bedtime story for GG's boys

Once upon a time - long, long ago - there lived a little boy who had long bright blond curley hair. He lived a town beside a wonderful, clear river called the White River. GG never understood that because the river color was BLUE, not white. Anyway, when this little boy would get ready for bed each night, his Mommie (your GG) would lay down beside him and they would talk about what he had done that day. He had a scruffy little dog named Shamus, but everyone always called him Shamey. He and Shamey were always getting into mischeif. When sleep began to make his eyelids feel heavy, he and his Mommie would put everyone whom the little boy loved on "The Sleepytown Train". That train had a great big old engine that could climb the highest Ozark hills and wind around every curve with skill. That old train had a very special task, you see. It had to keep the little boy's loved ones safe from all harm until the bright morning sun of the coming day. And tonight, Blake and Luke, if you listen really hard...right before you go to sleep.. you may just hear the whistle blow on "The Sleepytown Train" as your Daddy gets ready to go to sleepytown himself... I love both of you. your GG
