Transcript of Bedtime Conversation

Cosette often talks and sings to herself in bed at night before she falls asleep.  She was being especially chatty tonight, so I crept close to her door and recorded what she was saying.  Here's a transcript:

It was green grass.  Green was Daddy's favorite color in a minute when he turned into orange color.  He be orange favorite color.  [Gasp]  That would not ... that would be sad!  Mmm hmm.  He would not be sad.  I wouldn't be sad.  Ok.  I'm not sad right now.  I'm talking ... loud.  Yeah, yeah.
[Pause]
Now I'm sleepy.  Aaah, mmm [kind of a yawning sound].  I'm sleepy.  I'm sleeping on the car bed.  The bed would turn into brown.  Hmm, it's underwear.  That would be sad.  It would turn brown, and that would be sad.  Ok.  I'm done talking about brown.
(We started potty training today, and we had a conversation about how her underwear would turn brown if she pooped in it, and that would be a sad thing to happen - trying to reinforce how the potty was a better place for poop to go.)
Ring ring ring.  Hello!  Goodbye.  See, it's a phone call.  When Mommy gets a phone call, she talks on the phone to people.  Yeah.  Is that what Mommy do'd?  Yeah!
[Pause]
Umm.  Now I'm sleepy now.
[She then proceeds to hum Twinkle Twinkle Little Star]

So entertaining.
