So we put our two girls to bed tonight, the five-year-old in her bed and the two-year-old in her crib. And as she sometimes does, the five-year-old crept out of her bed to play quietly for a while. Unusually, the two-year-old expressed an opinion:

“Annie, go to bed! One…two…NOW!”

Our five-year-old was unmoved, and the two-year-old had said it several times before I realized what I was hearing.
