Description
If you ever wake up and your whole family is standing around your bed… pretend to sleep.
Thousands of people have described the same night: they wake up at 3:12 AM, and their family is standing around their bed in the dark. Smiling. Not blinking. Breathing perfectly together. These are the 7 rules they put together. Most people only need the first one. Nobody has ever needed the seventh.
