I have a weird kid

This was completely unexpected.

"Val, time to get ready for your nap!"

"Oh! OK, Mommy! I get to sleep?"

Bemused by her cheerfulness, "Yes. You get to sleep." And I wish I could too. Why is sleep wasted on people who don't want it?!?

Over the top politeness, "THANK you, Mommy!"

Uh... you're welcome? She's too young to be sarcastic, right?
