Anything for a Buck

Getting Emma ready in the morning is a monumental task that would probably go better if I had a cattle prod. The girl loves to sleep and just can't get going in the morning. Combine that with her "Oh, what's this over here?!?" distractability factor and she would leave the house in her jammies every day.

Last night we had finished reading in her room and she asked if she could have a dollar for camp today for "Sno-cone Friday". I told her she could, but she needed to get ready without me having to ask 800 times. Lo and behold, she came into our room this morning fully dressed with her shoes on and a smile on her face! Who needs intrinsic motivation when you could have money!?!
