"Okay, Graham. It's time for bed."
"Momma? Can you snuddle me?"
"Of course... scoot over."
"Can you give me a tiss?"
"Yep, plant one on me! I love you, Bubba."
"Mommy? I wuv you."
"Oh, you're so sweet. I 'wuv' you too."
"But I not like your hair."
"You don't like my hair? Why not?"
"It's not nice hair."
"Oh, that makes me sad. I like your hair."
"Yes. I have good hair."
"You do. And it's very soft. My hair is different, but it hurts my feelings that you don't like it."
"Yes. I not like it."
"Oh, alright. Well, I'm sorry you don't like it."
"I don't. Now say 'sorry'."
"I don't need to say 'I'm sorry', because I didn't do anything to make you sad."
"Yes you did. You had bad hair."
"Goodnight, Graham. I love you."
"Night, Mommy. Bye bye, not nice hair!"
Ahhh....the honesty of children!!
