"c'mon Jamie, let's get you to sleep," James' mum said, trying to get her restless son to settle down. James would rather not. James babbled a bit, meaning something like "But it's not my bedtime yet!" The sun was setting and it was very much his bedtime, but how could he go to sleep if he couldn't even sit still for goodness sake.

His mum finally picked him up and put him in his crib, said goodnight, and closed the door.
