Nobody Slept

[marval]

A Man returned home from a trip just when a storm hit with crashing thunder and severe lightning.

As he went into the bedroom about 2 a.m., he found his two children in bed with his wife, apparently scared by the loud storm.

He resigned myself to sleeping in the guest bedroom that night.

The next day, he talked to the children, and explained that it was O.K. to sleep with Mummy when the storm was bad, but when he was expected home, to please not sleep with Mummy that night. They said OK.

After his next trip several weeks later, his wife and the children picked him up in the terminal at the appointed time.

Since the plane was late, there were hundreds of other people also waiting for their arriving passengers.

As he entered the waiting area, his son saw him, and came running shouting, "Hi, Daddy! I've got some good news!"

As he waved back, he said loudly, "What's the good news?"

"Nobody slept with Mummy while you were away this time!" his son Alex shouted.

The airport became very quiet, as everyone in the waiting area looked at Alex, then turned to the man, and then searched the rest of the area to see if they could figure out exactly who his Mummy was.
