Gabriel has had a problem the past few months with having serious tantrums every night when bath time or bed time is mentioned. By the time he gets in bed, Dan and I are both exhausted. We decided that action had to be taken . . . tonight we put him on a sticker chart. He gets a sticker for not crying when getting in and taking a bath, not crying while getting his clothes on after bath, and not crying when he goes to his bedroom/pottying before bed.
Tonight was such a wonderful change of pace. There were no tears during bath time, no tears or argument while putting on pj's, and no tears when pottying before bed. He still cried when I turned off his bedroom light and left the room. Oh, well! I'll take any small successes.
