I just tucked the kids in. They decided to skip stories in exchange for being allowed to watch the special Thanksgiving Deal or No Deal on NBC..what can I say, they are huge fans of the show. Anyway when it was over, the reality of skipping bedtime stories hits Lydia, who starts crying because she wants stories. I reminded her that they chose to skip stories to watch Deal or No Deal. Her crying stops, and I can see a shift come over her. She’s found a way out….”But mommy, I didn’t even LOOK at the tv”
Um, doesn’t fly sweetie.
Gotta love the creative bargaining. I’ve gotten some pretty entertaining excuses that way.
