Stay in bed marble jar

I explain to L the concept of her 'stay in bed marble jar' and ask if she understands.
"Yes mam, when I keep getting in your bed, I keep you and daddy awake all night which makes you tired and grumpy. When I don't sleep I am tired and grumpy which makes you and daddy unhappy and we can't do this anymore. If I stay in my bed all night you will give me a marble for my jar and when I get 15 marbles we can go to 360 play centre".
I congratulate her for understanding so well and ask if she has any questions. "Yes.... Is marbles food?"

Other features today included "mum, I only have one football boot" when we should've left for football 5 minutes ago. And "I didn't eat the blackberries" despite what the other 5 witnesses said.

M had her final hospital appointment today about her HSP. All seems well but got to continue monitoring for another 6 months. Shouldn't see there being a problem though.

TFI Friday. Here's to marble incentives.
