Come again?

On a family trip back from Vermont, the kids asked: "How much hours til we get home?", to which Cheryl told them that we would get there much faster if they'd go to sleep, elaborating that it's just like Christmas when she tells them that the faster they fall asleep, the faster Santa will come, which got me to thinking how unlike that is from most men, who, the faster they come, the faster they fall asleep.
