Aunt Shara!

It is 6am. Josiah is calling out from his bedroom. It is a reasonable hour, but it feels extraordinarily early. I stumble into his room but before I can eat utter a word I hear him calling "Aunt Shawa (Shara)!" "What?" I mumble. "Aunt Shawa!" "You want Aunt Shara?" The words slur out of my tired lips, "Aunt Shara's not here. She's at her home and probably asleep right now if she's lucky. Why do you want Aunt Shara?" "But I want Aunt Shawa to visit!" "Okay, buddy. Maybe Aunt Shara can visit later. Please try to go back to sleep." Aunt Shara, I think he's ready for a sleepover!
