It’s too dark for me to sleep. I can’t see which side of my blanket is pink and which side is green.
I’m hungry. Very, very hungry. I need to find some food.
I want to play.
But Mama, wait! Stay here!
I want to wear my Santa jammies, not my cat jammies. I can’t sleep tonight in my cat jammies.
I need to tell you something.
I’m not tired. It’s not time for sleeping.
I need to ummmmm……ummmmmm…….ummmmmm…….
I have to pee again. I really really do.
You didn’t sing me my whole song. Can you sing it again?
We didn’t finish saying our prayers. I didn’t hear “Cheezus”.
I need my thing. You know, my THING!
What is Little Boo doing? Is she sleeping? Why?
Is it nighttime? Is the sun asleep?
But Mama, I’m talking to you!
I need my cat. No, not that one. Not THAT one. The one with sparkly eyes.
I can’t sleep without my two daughters and my son. You know, purple Rapunzel, wedding Rapunzel and Eugene. I’ll go get them.
I need fresh water. Is this water fresh? Is it cold? Is it full? I want much water.
But I don’t want to go to sleep. I want to watch a show.
I want to sleep in your bed.
But wait…WAIT!
Is THIS the green side?
Daddy didn’t say goodnight to me.
I can’t see the moon on my Dreamlite. It’s only a crescent moon and I wanna see a circle moon. Does the Dreamlite have batteries? Does it have a timer so that batteries don’t run out?
Is my smoke detector smiling at me? Is it sad?
Where are we going tomorrow? Can I wear my Rapunzel dress?
Did I give you a hug and kiss? Did I give you a hug and kiss three times? Why did I give you a hug and kiss three times? Ava is silly! Why is Ava so silly?
Ok, ok, ok. Goodnight I love you, Mama! I’ll see you in the morning.
Did you say you love me too?
But WAIT…is this green or pink??????
Love how you put it together! Seeing it in a post is so different from hearing them. My daughter goes through the same motion every night too. 😉
Thank you!! As much as it can draw out her actually going to bed, I definitely get a chuckle or two at some of the things that she says!!
Oh my goodness, this is every night in my house too! Also including, “There’s a shadow on my wall. Turn the lights off. Where’d the shadow go? Turn the lights back on!”
She comes up with new ways to prolong bedtime every night!
