Epiphany

Spock's various attempts to delay bedtime:

Spock: I have to poop.

Daddy: You have to poop? You pooped earlier.

Spock: My tummy is empty but I am waiting to poop. Jesus said I must poop...

Daddy: What?! Jesus didn't ask you to poop! No more excuses - stay in bed.

Spock: But I need more excuses!

A classic

During bedtime reading:

Spock: I want you to read this (Dr Seuss's The Grinch who stole Christmas) to me.

Mommy: Are you sure - it may be scary for you and you may get nightmares. Let's read another one.

Spock: No. I want this one. It's a classic - you must read it to me!
