Since I am so sick of Johanna's lack of going to bed skills, I pulled a parenting hail mary. Yup, I bribed her. I guess I do this more than I would like. I try really hard to teach her to obey because it is what is best for her and not because she will receive some extrinsic reward. However, I think I have mentioned that my child is 3 and desperate times call for desperate measures. I found these adorable child-sized press-on nails on clearance the other day. I bought them knowing exactly what I was going to use them for------an attempt at nighttime peace.
The good news is that so far I have not had to go up there again. The bad news is that it is still early and I probably cursed myself by posting this.
