Atticus's reflection

I cannot fail to understand why the children did not see Boo Radley. I remember looking over my should one minute, and the next they had the blanket. 

I used to be friends with the Radley's, until they became hermits. I remember Boo, he was a good kid, just hanged out with the wrong crowd. I just hope, for the sake of my children, they do not end up like poor Boo. Alone, desperate, wanting a better life. 
The children were not paying attention to what was going on near them, only what was more interesting. Scout was very tired when I got her up and sat her next to the Radleys. Jem wasn't as tired, but still wasn't able to pay attention or comprehend what was happening. With their thoughts preoccupied as to what Miss Maudie would say about her house being burnt to the ground, they failed to notice Boo come out and present them with a blanket. 
At first, I didn't believe the children that they hadn't moved, but when I thought about it, Boo has taken a liking to Scout and Jem. The children are now tucked away, safely, in their beds. Probably dreaming about Boo and the house.
