I have to remind myself... they are only four years old..

At night the girls would start out sleeping on their baby couch and baby car bed.  Kari asked last night when she could come up to our bed for some cuddling.  I told her that I would bring her up after she fell asleep.  Silence pursued for about twenty minutes, and I happily thought that perhaps the girls fell asleep early today.  Suddenly a little voice broke the silence, "May I go up now? (什麼時候可以上喫丫？）A little surprised that she was still awake, I replied, "I said when you fall asleep honey."
