I covered it up at the bottom of his bed and promptly forgot about it until later that night...
The kid brother waited for me to come out of the bathroom while I was getting ready for bed, stick horse in hand. This is how he tells it. "So I was reaching over on my bed for a book when my hand connected with this oddly-shaped lump. I'm immediately reminded of that scene in The Godfather, you know, the one where he finds the horse head in his bed, so I took a step back and lifted up the covers. Yeah, it freaked me out a little."
Even though neither of us have actually SEEN The Godfather, I love that he gets things. I'm gonna miss that kid.

Ha. You're funny.
Dude, go write your paper. :) And gracias.
Okay, that's pure genius. You rock.
I was hoping for a Dr. Horrible reference, but having seen the Godfather, I love what you did that much more.
Oh my gosh, before even getting to that part of your post it reminded *me* of The Godfather, too.
GENIOUS. That is all.
My daughter does THIS EXACT THING. With this exact horse. Puts him to bed. Sometimes, in her brother's bed. And yes... I have the same thoughts. That she is making him an offer he can't refuse...
