"Open your eyes, Oma!"

I followed the little girls downstairs to their bedroom. Without turning on a single light, they scampered through the toys, books and pillows they'd left strewn over the family room floor. I tripped on a blanket as I searched for the switch, and asked, "How can you kids see where you're going? It's so dark!"

Jess (5) answered very seriously. "We just eat carrots. They give you night vision."

Duh, Oma.
