A Gentleman

Derek has been gone for a business training this week.
Thankfully he will be home soon.
Thankfully I have this little dude to keep us safe and be the man of the house while Derek is gone.

Tonight Amelia locked my bedroom door and then closed it on her way out.
Derek usually handles that business.
I know he generally uses a card to do so.
As I stood at my door, trying over and over to get in, I said aloud, 
"Where am I going to sleep tonight if I can't get in?"
Lincoln was the only one in the hall with me since Amelia was doing time in her room.
Calmly he said, "You can sleep in my bed, Mom.  I'll sleep on the couch."
