“Okay, okay! Mommy will sleep with you, okay?” Marlee said and lay down next to Peggy, hugging her and getting
ready to sleep.

“No, Mom. I’ve woken up and I’m not sleepy now,” the little girl replied.

“I like him!” The little girl replied without hesitation.
“Why do you like him, can you tell me?”
“I think Mister has a nice smile that makes me feel good. He’s not aggressive at all. I like being with Mister.”
“Then… would you be okay if I let you stay by Mister’s side from now on?”
“Of course! Mom, can I really be with Mister from now on?” The little girl immediately sat up and asked excitedly.
