A bad mood cure!

Paige was in a baaaaad mood this morning when I tried to get her to go to gymnastics. I ended up forcing her to go since we missed last week (due to the same Thursday night random sleep issue). I was determined to get there at all costs...I mean, hey, this thing cost $200 and it will be over soon and we will have nothing to do!

So anyway, she was fine-ish at the class, just acting a bit odd, but freaked out as we left. I started in with the bribes of chocolate milk and the purchase of a "treat" at the grocery store if she was a good girl...I had to as we had no food at home. Anyway, she was fine when we got to the store, but what reinforced the good behaviour, I believe ,was a sudden blackout in the store. What fun! We had to shop for things in the dark. She thought this was great! Some of the lights were on when we were leaving, but it snapped her out of the bad mood and she has been great ever since! Well...I haven't tried to have lunch with her yet, as she is quite wrapped up in another independent game of "train tracks" with her books and trains.
