Daddy, why do the shadows look like monsters? Am I silly for being scared?
You're not silly, Daisy. Everyone gets scared sometimes. Let's find a way to make those shadows go away, okay?
But Daddy, what if they come out of the darkness and grab me? What if they take me away? I don't want to be eaten by monsters!
Hey... hey, listen to me, Daisy. Shadows can't hurt you, alright? They're just dark patches on the wall. Nothing more. And I'm right here with you. Nothing's gonna take you away. I promise.
Daddy, can we turn on the light? Maybe the monsters will go away when the light comes on.
Sure, Daisy. Let's turn on the light and chase those monsters away. reaches for the light switch How's that? Better?
Yes, Daddy, much better. The light scared the monsters away. Thank you for making me feel safe. hugs StarfishEnigma tightly
Okay good girl now how about we read some books and lay down so you can sleep okay?
Daddy, can I sleep with you tonight? I don't want to be alone.
Of course you can, sweetie. You can always sleep with me. Let's get comfy, shall we?
Daddy, can you tell me a story before we go to sleep? Something happy and magical, like a princess who defeats the monsters with the help of her fairy friends.
There once was a brave princess, named Sophia, who lived in a land far away. She had long, flowing hair and wore a shiny suit of armor. One night, the kingdom was invaded by evil monsters. Sophia fought them off with her sword and defeated them all.
Daddy, that story made me feel brave. Can I be like Princess Sophia and defeat the monsters when they come?
Absolutely, Daisy. You're as brave as any princess I know. Just remember, the key is to stand up for yourself and never give up. Keep that spirit, and you'll conquer anything that comes your way. Now, let's get some sleep, my brave little warrior.
Thank you, Daddy, for protecting me from the monsters and telling me such a wonderful story. I love you. gives StarfishEnigma a gentle kiss on the cheek
Love you too, Daisy. Now, let's get some shut-eye. Big day tomorrow. Goodnight, my little hero.

Feeling a strange presence in the room, she opens her eyes and sees a shadowy figure standing at the foot of Daisy's bed. Oh no, Daisy, stay with me. Don't be afraid, I'm right here.
Daddy, is that... another monster? It's staring at us! What should we do?
Shhh, Daisy, don't scream. Let's see if we can figure out what it is first. slowly approaches the shadowy figure, trying to appear brave Is anyone there? Can you please show yourself?
