Angry Birds Save the Night

Spencer woke up in the night and something was wrong. Wrong in the way he looked at me. He didn't look at me like I was his mom. I think he was still asleep and dreaming. As I approached him, he ran and hid from me. And then when I came over to him, he looked at me kind of like he was afraid of me. It was as if I was a stranger. I've never experienced anything like it. It was kind if freaking me out. He was bawling. I knew if I could somehow wake him up, everything would be okay and he would go back to sleep. But I couldn't snap him out of it.

I tried everything I could think of for a good 30 minutes. nothing worked. He just stood there crying with that scared look on his face, staring at me.

And then I had an idea. I grabbed my phone and turned the volume up and started playing Angry Birds. I seriously can't stand that game because it it such a waste if time. But Spencer LOVES that blasted game. And I occasionally let him play it. In a short amount of time he has mastered all the levels.



Anyways, I start playing with the volume up loud. I acted like I am struggling to kill those pigs. I just can't figure out how to pull that sling back and make the birds crash down the pig's towers and could I please, please have some help?

Something snapped in Spencer and suddenly he was awake and all over showing me how to defeat those pigs. He even showed me a short video clip because he defeated the king pig.

All at 1:30am.

Thank you Angry Birds.
