I know that nothing can get in my apartment
We're three stories up
There are only two access points that don't require a firetruck sized ladder
and they're blocked by so many locks and gadgets
that you'd wake up the whole house
and animals (including a pit bull)
with the racket it would take to break in.
I know nothing is hiding under my bed
or in the closets
We don't have any closet doors (I took them all down)
and the only bedroom door that's ever shut is TJ's
and him and Mylo sleep in there.
That doesn't change the fact
that I need a nightlight
The kids rooms have night lights
The stove light is on
And my bedroom has a night light
Some nights, like last night, I also turn the tv on
That was after jumping out of bed three times to flip on my bedroom light
Due to weird anxiety issues that woke me up
Unfortunately for my husband
this is completely normal for me
I can't sleep with my back to the bedroom door either
And I have to have my night light
