Izzy woke at about midnight last night for a little bit of exorcist action. When she stopped crying after a little while and I could finally understand what she was saying this is what I heard…
“No! Too much money… I don’t like it… too much fashioned old money!!!!!”
Thankfully the night terror didn’t go too long but Mum I blame YOU!
