Back Scratcher

This morning the boys were playing video games in bed while I woke up. Big Kid was at the end of the bed playing and little kid was lying against my back, watching his brother play.

"little kid, will you scratch my back for me?"

"No!"

"I will, mom!" Big Kid offered.

"No, Big Kid! I got dis! The situation is taken care of!" little kid replied, sounding angry.

I waited a few seconds before asking, "So are you going to scratch my back, little kid?"

"No! And Imma make sure Big Kid don't either! I don't wanna but I'm not lettin' him do it!"

Thanks, little kid.

My back is still itchy.
