Hyperbole

Meant to post this last night... last night while I was home alone with the kids, out in the living room wandering through a Wikipedia rabbit hole, my daughter started talking in her sleep. She calls out "daddy, daddy!" in a somber voice. I run in and find her fast asleep. She talks some more, but doesn't awaken. When she finally stops, my son (sleeping in a different room) starts talking in his sleep. I peek my head in; he's also fast asleep, and continues to talk on-and-off for another five minutes.

So my kids are possessed. Or perhaps they're just like my wife and I (both of us have been told by former roommates that we talk in our sleep, though we've seldom heard each other.)
