Jail Time...

On the way home from Walmart today, Emmie was buckled in the very back of the van and Hayden was buckled in the seat in front of her. Emmie kept stretching her seat belt WAY out so she could stand up and try to play peek-a-boo with Hayden.

I told her a couple of times she needed to sit down and be safe. She'd sit for 30 seconds, forget, and the whole process would start again. Eventually we passed a police car on the side of the road and I said, "Emmie, if that police man sees you standing up and not being safe in the car, he's going to pull us over and mommy will be in trouble."

She said, "Yea, and then you'll have to call all my friends and say, "Sorry, Emmie can never play with you again. A police man threw her in a cage.""

It's certainly not something I've ever told her, but I just laughed and didn't say anything. If it keeps her sitting, let her think it...
