You need to explain to her that you need time to fully wake up before you answers any questions.

You may be a monster on the outside, but you aren't one on the inside, you're a nice person and that's all that matters

It's okay! being a monster is cooool. don't deny what you are, be proud of it! Unless it's something bad, then try to work with it.

WHOOPS! I've been in this situation. Kids just suddenly appearing in the middle of the night to ask you something weird? Totally normal.

Anecdote: My 4-year old daughter might as well be a freaking ghost. 3 a.m., I'm rousted from a dead sleep by something. I blink my eyes for a second to try and focus. Somewhere in the split-seconds between blinks she just APPEARED. Like, Supernatural style. One moment she wasn't there and then she sorta flickered into sight.

"Daddy! Did I scare you?" she does this growly thing with her voice when she's trying to be scary. I got the impression this had been premeditated.

My heart was pounding like someone was trying to use a hammer to smash through a sheet of plywood. "No, honey. Better luck next time." I LIED.

"Awwwww. Can I sleep with you then?"

"Sure honey....." I somehow managed to keep my vocal control to a feigned level of tired semi-annoyance.

Meanwhile? She slept like a log the rest of the night and it was a day and a half before I managed to get sleep again.

Ha. Marah used to have long hair, and someone at some point told her about the movies The Grudge and The Ring. So she'd sneak in to where I was sleeping (or my sister or one of my brothers, depending on who was living with her at the time) and crawl right up under the covers with her hair pulled down over her face and start making that ghost noise they make in teh movies. That was terrifying to wake up to.

With that ONE huge eye peeking out between the curtain of hair over her face? Yeah, I bet.

Yeah, but, we know how it goes. We're down for it but Mommy isn't. My daughter wants one so bad too.... She tries HARD to convince me. "Daddy?? I want hair like yours!". And inside I'm like 'NNNNGH' cause she just gets me right there where it counts. And I want to. But I know Mommy will flip her lid and then some.

I had a cat. His name was Captain. Captain? Was freakin supercat. No fear, no boundaries.... No end of stupid. But he was a devoted little bastard til he went crazy. One day I was shaving myself a mohawk. And he comes running in and hops up on the counter like 'WHATCHADOINBRO!!!' No, it wasn't an inquiry. With him? It was a statement. So, I held the buzzing clippers out to him to inspect.... And that little freak went and rubbed the top of his head right against the trimmers. Shaved a 2x2 inch square nearly out from between his ears and ran off. 30 seconds later? She's yelling "WHY'D YOU SHAVE THE CAT?? STOP SHAVING THE CAT!!"

Once I explained it to her, she understood. Bestest, dumbest cat ever. True story.

Later on he was sitting to give himself the typical ritual cat bath. And when he went to lick his paw and rub the top of his head he just stopped with this expression like "Waaaaaaait a second..... Something is wrong here."

O goodie I get to say one of my favorite lines in existence!
