Overheard last night...

Setting: midnight, asleep

Characters: Sleepy mom (SM), and Awake Child (AC)

AC, stealthily standing by the bed until SM wakes....

SM: "Why are you up?"

AC: "Because I can't go to sleep!"

SM: "Get back upstairs in your bed."

AC releases a long, exasperated sigh and leaves the room, footsteps heard climbing the stairs.

(Three minutes later, AC again at SM's bedside, emphatically...)

AC: "See mom, I told you I couldn't fall asleep."
