How to push back on scope creep

The situation

A client keeps adding 'small' requests to a fixed-scope project.

The goal

Reject added scope without damaging the client relationship.

Draft (the wrong way)

Uhh, this wasn't really part of what we agreed on but I guess I can try to squeeze it in?

Parse-optimized draft

Happy to take this on — it sits outside the original SOW, so I'll send a short change order with an estimate for the added work. Once you approve it, I'll slot it into the timeline. Want me to send that today?
