From the Mouth of Babes

Mom: “Kuki-pie, you should start sleeping in your own room now.”

Kuki: “No.”

Mom: “See, you’re three years old. You’re a big girl, right? Look at Anu; he sleeps all by himself.”

Kuki: “What about Sydney? Does she sleep by self?”

Mom: “Yes, she sleeps all by herself. Not with her mommy and daddy.”

Kuki: “Um ... Zion?”

Mom: “Yes.”

Kuki: “Chloe?”

Mom: “Yes.”

Kuki: “Kyle?”

Mom: “Yes.”

Kuki: “Bethany?”

Mom: “Yes.”

Kuki: “Pramath?”

Mom: “Yes! All the kids in your class, in fact, everybody you know, sleeps alone; in their own rooms.”

Kuki: “But, why you still sleep with daddy?”

Amusement, embarrassment, lots of chortling, a resounding kiss to Kuki and an invitation to sleep in her parents' room that night.

Well, actually no! We are as raw as they come. It's all based on reputation, conjecture and Readers Digest! If only you could read the Digest. Ask your Mom! :D
