I'm very glad I "found" you and look forward to learning and laughing (and crying) with your family through the next year!<BR/><BR/>I so understand about appreciating BETTER behavior instead of good behavior. The fountain story really is cute - how did she respond when she had to give you the coins? You're very deserving of a wonderful birthday weekend. What a great gift that was for Akila to give you!<BR/><BR/>Sassy has gone to bed for an ENTIRE WEEK now without a struggle, Barb. A WEEK. It's miraculous. In the almost 10 months she has lived with us, there had only been about 2 nights without massive struggle and melt down. Now we have had SEVEN DAYS STRAIGHT. I had called the dr. about the melatonin after you told me, and she suggested I do Benedryl instead. I have been giving it to her at dinner, and it does not drug her by any means - but it seems to take that edge off that made her wired about going to bed. She lays in there for me, reads a book, then doesn't fuss when it's lights out. It's like a little piece of heaven. I'm going to stop doing it after this week and hope that I did it long enough to get us into a good routine.<BR/><BR/>Sorry to write a novel for a comment, but you were such an ear for me so I wanted to share the GOOD news instead of always the bad.Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14765038570974424086noreply@blogger.com
