The other night, bedtime was accompanied by a lot of overtired howling and screaming from two Ducklings in particular, which prompted the following exchange:
Me: Keith, thank you so much for being calm and cooperative at bedtime. It makes my life so much easier.
Keith: (muffled voice from under his quilt) You're welcome, Mummy. It makes my life easier, too.

Another bedtime, this one much less contentious:
Edward: Night night, Colin. Don't let the bedbugs bite!
Colin: !!!!!!!!!
A conversation about the use of expressions ensued, and Colin was suitably placated.
Colin: Okay, night night, Daddy. Don't eat bugs!
