Van-pires

Last night at bedtime there was some discussion about vampires. I was a little worried that, this being bedtime, the vampire talk might cause nightmares, so I wanted to make sure the boys understood that vampires aren’t real. Here’s the conversation I had with Finn after he shared his not-so-extensive knowledge on the subject.

Me: You know something else about vampires?

Finn: What?

Me: They’re not real.

Finn: Yes, they are. I saw a van-pire.

Me: You did? Where?

Finn: When I came out of my Batcave.

I couldn’t help cracking up, and then neither could he, and I figured we’d be OK in the nightmare department. And we were.
