My daughter woke me around 11:50 last night.

 My wife and I had picked her up from her friend Sally's birthday party, brought her home, and put her to bed. 

My wife went into the bedroom to read while I fell asleep watching the Braves game.

"Daddy," she whispered, tugging my shirt sleeve.

 "Guess how old I'm going to be next month."

"I don't know, beauty," I said as I slipped on my glasses.

 "How old?"She smiled and held up four fingers.

It is 7:30 now. 

My wife and I have been up with her for almost 8 hours. 

She still refuses to tell us where she got them.
