- One summer evening, during a violent thunderstorm, a mother was tucking her small boy into bed.
- She was about to turn off the light when he asked with a tremor in his voice, "Mommy, will you sleep with me tonight?"
- The mother smiled and gave him a reassuring hug.
- "I can't dear," she said. "I have to sleep in Daddy's room."
- A long silence was broken at last by a shaken little voice saying, "The big sissy."
