Every little kids loves secrets, just the thought of knowing something not everyone knows makes little kids so happy! When Jeremiah and Peniel were still living with my family I could get them to do anything if I just made up something and whispered it in their ear and told them it was a secret. It had to be whispered in their ears to. I remember a few times I would try to just tell them out loud cause no one else was in the room with us but they would squeal it had to be in their ear. It probably sounds bad when I say I could get them to do anything, it's not bad though. I would ask them to do things like get me a drink or pick up some trash or just stop being loud, nothing bad. I didn't only tell them secrets to get them to do stuff either, it was just a good method! Sometimes I just liked telling them secrets to see their cute faces light up and watch them laugh. They told me secrets too! I have been thinking a lot about all the secrets we shared.
One time Jeremiah got so tickled at something I just made up out of no where to tell him as a secret. I wanted him to stop singing so loud in the car while we were waiting for our parents to get out of the store. I asked him if a secret would make him be quiet and he agreed. I got close and whispered "Uhh..uhh..uhh...uhh" and he got irritated and pushed me to say a secret. Finally, I just said "Melissa farts in the bath tub!" He couldn't stop laughing for the longest time and he kept asking "REALLY? Does she really?" I just laughed.
Our whole family did the secret thing eventually. We all told ridiculous made up secrets about each other to Jeremiah and Peniel. There has been "Georgia's a ginger troll", "Mitchell eats bugers", just so many weird things. I can't even remember them. We don't do it anymore, without the little ones it wouldn't be the same.
