Candy Bar Creep

When his children were small, their dad Fred

every Halloween Eve to them said

that a candy bar creep

steals kids’ treats while they sleep.

(Their best bars Dad hid under his bed!)

Eventually they will catch on! I used to eat some of my kids' candies when they were asleep, but they were very young and I loved candy back in those days! I was doing them a favor with their teeth haha

Taking candy from babies. BAD! Taking candy from your own babies. WORSE! I hope all his teeth rot out. Good one my friend. God Bless, JB

Hello Andrea … reminds me of my grandson receiving a new bed. When Dad moved the old bed out he found around two hundred chocolate wrappers at the side of it - thanks for the memory Andrea - Lindsay
