Words at Bedtime

me: ava, you really need to go to sleep.
ava: i am not tired. i ate too much sugar (cookie dough from halloween party prep)

me: (eyes closed, hands folded, praying) dear God, please help ava to fall asleep. and please
help me to be a writer.
ava: i can help you write. i know lots of good words.
me: that's right. today you said "accessories."
ava: yes, and I also know: supercalifragilisticexpialidocious,
wig, and parfait
ava: you just have to ask me to help you, and I will. I have been
hiding these words.
