what happened

So we had a plan with the baby. I was going to talk to her about going home a long time before her mom showed up and get her emotionally ready. Then I took her to the car and strapped her in the carseat. I also told her that if she did not cry I would give her a treat.

IT WORKED> I know the third part is sort of a bribe but if she had something in her mouth she could not cry. So plan B is get to to do step one and two and not need step three anymore.
I was totally relieved that I did not have to spank her.
It was such a load off my mind that feel invigorated to to it again and see if it still works.
the joys of grandparenting are tremendous.
