Why? Why?

So being the rock-star mom that I am I took Gav to the DREADED McDonald's playland today! We had the obligatory chicken nuggets happy meal. Gavin ate with the BRIBE that if he didn't eat all of his food no frolicking in the germ-laden playground would ensue. Isn't bribing wonderful? I like to call it a tangible reward for expected behavior...psycho-b.s. is what Jon would refer to it as! Either way...all food was eaten and fun did in fact ensue. One slight problem, when you want your child to exit the play ground it is impossible to get them out. You can't climb up the thing and they are fully aware of this. Gavin dilly and dallied for several minutes after being explicitly told to "get his heiny out of there." Being the genius that he is he took his sweet time. Saying, "I am trying," as he sat in one of the many bulbous areas of the playland not moving. So, here I am, the mom standing next to the plastic contraption willing my child down the hideous thing! As everyone looks on...other mothers with sympathizing eyes...knowing all to well soon, it too, will be them!
