Sometimes I scare my children on purpose - and it’s fun. Sometimes I scare them accidently - and I feel so bad about it.
Today I went to check on my 2 yo daughter during naptime because she was coughing. While I was bent over my 4 yo sat up in her top bunk bed. When I stood up I really scared her. I felt so bad because she was only half awake.
I remember scaring my Mom in the mornings when I was about middle school age. The hallway makes a complete loop at my parents and the stairs come down beside a solid wall. It’s perfect to hide behind and jump out. I’m not sure if it was any fun for her, but I still laugh about it. [Hi Mom! Dad taught me how to do it. ;)]
Now I’m the Mom and my kids want to scare me.
Sunday when I walked through the living room I knew that my son was hiding, but I wasn’t sure where. I didn’t jump at all when he jumped out and shot me with his pop gun, I just continued to the bathroom.
While I was in the bathroom I heard him ask his sisters, “You wanna scare Mommy with me?”
I creeped out of the bathroom and crawled around my sewing desk because I knew they were in the closet. When they started opening the door I hollered “boo!” My 4 yo daughter screamed and laughed all at once.
The 2yo was sitting on the couch and she immediately ran to the closet, “Scare me, Mommy! Scare me!”

Too funny! My 4yo tries to scare me sometimes. Fortunately for me and unfortunately for her I don’t scare very easily. Because of that I loved to hide in our bedroom and scare my sister. I’d hide behind the door or in the closet every evening when we went upstairs. She knew I was in there but I scared her every time. It was so much fun. I also used to hide in the bathroom or the kitchen and scare the girls in college. I was/am so mean. My mom scares very easily and most of the time I was careful and tried not to scare her.
I noticed that “most of the time.”
That’s funny that you scared the college girls!
