I’m doing my best not tell this kid to go to fucking sleep. His mums already tapped out, the dogs are snoring, and I’m bored as shit cause I don’t wanna turn the tv on and distract him.

You know all those story books you read to him before he was born? Well now is the time to dig deep into the memory bank and get creative. As long as it's in a soft voice who cares what you say. Once upon a time there was a troll who lived under the bridge who ate small children who didn't go to sleep.... blah blah blah
