Holy cow moment #: Can you bribe a toddler? The answer is-drumroll please- no.
Toddlers do not appreciate bribery yet, oh but I wish they did. All I want is for my child to go to bed. Or that was the request last night. I'm sure today I had a lot of I wants and I wished she could could be bribed into doing any one of them.
At the moment I am eating the applesauce she should have been eating...and yes I am using her spoon because why do more dishes.
A few minutes ago I was wresting her to stay still long enough to change her diaper. Ha-fat chance.
Walking down the sidewalk I wanted her to stop trying to pull the wagon down the hill when we had been going up it.
Now - oh, now I wish she would stop spitting her half chewed food out just because she wanted a different piece.
oh how I wish she understood bribery and the beauty of it. This probably makes me a bad mom. Oh well I will worry about it later.
The moments of adulthood, mostly Mommy-hood that make me go "Holy COW when did that happen." If you have been there, done that please comment and laugh along with me because some days that is the only way to get through the day!
