Sometimes you Need to Make a Deal

Post by Shannon


The truth is sometimes you need to make a deal with your kids...

We had a problem at our house with the binky. The big sister did not want to give it up no matter what we tried.

Finally, two months after our baby came, I made a deal with her. I told her I would give her a stuffed animal puppy if she would give me the binky. At first she wasn't sure about this deal. She wanted me to give her both.

I told her that she would have the puppy with her all the time if I could have the binky. She was a little hesitant, but she gave me the binky. I put it in the garbage can.

This was a HUGE moment! That was in October, and she hasn't looked back since! Yay!
