Me: Oh honey, I'm so sorry. Let's think of some happy things before we go to sleep. Like pancakes.
Scarlett: Oooh, like talking pancakes.
Me: with chocolate chips...or popsicles
Scarlett: oh yeah, singing popsicles
Scarlett (after a long pause): Mom, you know how that little boy in the Bible beat Goliath?
Me: How hunny?
Scarlett: God was on his side.
Me: That's right sweetheart, God was on his side. Is God on your side?
Scarlett: Yes, and mommy too.
Me: Yes, I am always on your side, and Daddy. Maybe we can ask God tonight for good dreams? Do you want to pray?
Scarlett: Dear God, thank you for today, and I pray for happy dreams, Amen.
Me: That was perfect sweetie.
