Avoiding Bedtime

Caleb, from his bed where he is supposed to be sleeping, "Mommy! I need ...(something I can't hear.)" So I walk into his bedroom.

Me: "What do you need, Sweetheart?"
Caleb: "Mommy, I need ... uh ... I need ... um ... I think ... uh ... what do I need?"
Me: "You don't need anything."
Caleb: "I need something."
Me: (Walking away) "Goodnight."
Caleb: (Yelling) "I need a basket!"

A basket? ANYTHING not to sleep!
