The One Eyed Monster

Shelby thinks Grandma Scovill tells the best ghost stories ever. A few weeks ago we were vising family in Idaho Falls and one night Grandma was telling ghost stories to Shelby. She told her a story about Frankenstein another about a mummy but the one that stuck was "The One Eyed Monster".
Since returning home Shelby has been drawing one eyed monsters all over the house. The other day I was helping my sister-in-law bake sugar cookies when Shelby came out of her room to get me, "Mommy I need to show you something" (she was really excited.) So she took me into her room to show me that she had drawn a one eyed monster on her dresser in marker. Once she realized I wasn't impressed she quickly told me it was Toby that drew it, so I told her "Shelby if you are going to draw something and blame it on your brother next time don't draw a one eyed monster we all know that is your thing."
Luckily the marker all came off of her dresser but she still had to go straight to bed. As soon as I walked out of her room I laughed and thought I should have taken a picture before I cleaned it off.
So heres to you Grandma Scovill, a one eyed monster from Shelby.
