Well. How do I start. My husband and I and our two children had just moved from Phoenix Arizona to Avondale Arizona in a new home which had 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. It first happend when I was slowly moving in some of our stuff into the home one afternoon. I had also stopped by the grocery store and bought our two girls some toys which i layed on the table next to the dining room. Ten minutes later I heard some children laughing running in the house like they were playing.

I thought it was strange as they were both in daycare at the time and my husband was still at work. I had experienced seeing and hearing ghosts in the past but i just ignored it. when i picked up the kids later and my husband came home I told him i couldn't find the toys I had bought for the children that i layed on the table. we went in and looked at the kids to see if they had came and taken the toys but they were fast asleep as i left them and when they woke up the next morning i asked them if they had taken the toys and they said no...We never saw those two toys again.

One night i was in one of the bedroom that we had made our office. it was around 3am in the morning. i heard some kind of talking like in a whisper. I went to check on the kids, they were fast asleep. my husband was also fast asleep. I again ignored it.

Another day I got home early from work, I had not picked up the children yet. I was in the office and i walked out after being on the computer, as i walked though the door of that room i heard foot steps shuffling on the carpet next to me. Strange huh...I ignored it...all this time i told my husband about it and he half heartedly believed me, he doesn't really believe in ghost even though he trusts me and wanted to he had no experience of it himself in the past.

One night we were watching television. I heard a laughter or kids playing once again, i looked at my husbands face as he was sitting right beside me, he didn't look at me. Then I heard it again, I looked at him to check his expression to see if he heard it too...this time he was looking at me...I asked him if he heard the children, he said yes, he finally 100% believed me.

we never had bad experiences with these children ghosts, in other words, we were never afraid but I noticed my children always wanted to sleep with the light on in that house, I had bought a flushable toilet for my toddler and when i asked my children why they felt they had to have the light on in their bedroom at nights even though I bought them a light night, they said "mummy, at nights we hear the toilet flushing on it's own". I didn't say another word, I had attributed that to the "children ghosts".
