If you kids don’t knock it off, I’m going to come in there! You don’t want that right?
No, Daddy. We’ll be good. We promise.
More giggles.
Quit monkeying around! Here I come.

The Trifextra weekend challenge was to use an animal as a verb. This is my original thought – and it was exactly 33 words. So, rather than monkeying with it further, I decided to post it as is. I missed the weekly challenge – my first to miss, I think. It’s been a busy week.
This weekend’s entries will be community judged. So, if you’re inclined to do so, read all the entries and vote for your favorite three. You will have exactly 12 hours after the challenge closes to do so. Support writers.

This story reminds me of many nights trying to get the kids off to sleep. Nice take on the prompt.
Sweet. I like how monkey is the same animal we use in French too! Poor monkeys… getting blamed for every children’s shenanigans.
Cute little story.
Love this use of ‘monkey,’ reminds me of my kids when they were little.
Oooh, monkeying…that’s one I didn’t think of. Funny, because this conversation feels much like the ones my parents had with us as kids 🙂
haha, classic! i don’t know how many times my dad yelled at us for ‘monkeying’ around! those were the good ol’ days.
..and I know that they will monkey around all the more. 🙂
