Let it Begin with Daniel

After the "lights-out" pseudo-finale of bed-time (it's never over until everyone's really sleeping), Madeleine asked for water. I asked Ian if he wanted water, and he did. Finally, I asked Daniel if he wanted water, and he provided the most altruistic response to an offer of a glass of water that I've ever heard:

"Daddy, you don't have to get me water, but if you want to get me water, that's okay. Why don't you just get Madeleine and Ian water?"
