We have a pretty set routine at bedtime and the kids usually do great. Cassie gives us a problem sometimes, but settles down pretty quick. I had read them their books and Cassie was doing her “don’t leave me alone, I’m scared, no body likes me” wah wah wah… I usually let the kids tell me two things each while tucking them in so that they can’t get up saying “I forgot to tell you…”
Conversation went like this:
Me: Wanna tell me your two things?
Her: No!
Me: Wanna tell me one thing?
Her: No!
Me: Wanna tell me three things?
Her: No!
Me (starting to get the giggles watching her pitch a fit): Wanna tell me 500 things?
Her (strangely quiet for a minute): But that might take all night, though!
Hey it shut her up and it was really funny. Promise!
