For awhile Will was really struggling with staying in his bed. We'd find him in the hallway in the middle of the night or at the top of the stairs sleeping when we'd come up to bed. In the mornings he'd go downstairs and get a maraca or drum or tambourine and start playing it to wake us up. Nice, huh? So we started a rewards chart for him--if he stayed in bed all night and when he woke up in the morning, he got to put a sticker on his chart. Then when the chart was full, he got a cake. He finished his chart last week and got his cake. He told me he wanted a "Geaux Tigers cake" because Daddy is such an LSU fan. I had to put candles in it for him and sing Happy Birthday when it was frosted and done. The things we do for our kids, huh? :)
