...As my husband and son so often and affectionately call me. I know we all do crazy stuff just to put a smile on our kids faces, but what is the kookiest thing you have ever done to get your kid to do something without a struggle? I have recently started something that is so crazy that as I do it I say to myself "I can't believe you are doing this," yet I persist for lets see, I think this is the 4th night in a row. I'll tell you mine but I want to hear yours too (unless of course I am the worlds one and only kooky mama):
In order to get Braylon to pee in the potty one more time before bed (despite his insistence that he does not need to pee, MOM!) I have been moving the toilet seat like a big mouth and in a silly voice saying "Braylon, I am hungry for some pee!" Crazy? Yes. But it works every time.

hmmm there are so many, the latest one I can think of is playing Thriller on my cell phone so that she would dance and smile for the photographer..you would not believe the looks I get when Michael Jackson plays on my phone. Also saying "Oh Cinderella, lets go do this, Oh Cinderella would love to eat peas"
