My girl wants to party all the time

The more children we have and the older they get the more we realize that our parenting tactics have to change with each individual child. Last night Kalista proved this yet again. When Miranda and Ari were little and we were struggling to get them in their clothes we would say, "Hurry and put you jammies on or Mom/Dad is going to put them on." The girls would run over and put them on lest mommy or daddy wear them. When it came to Jacob he would make it a competition of who could be the fastest. Then Sabrina came along. She would just look at us like, "Are you kidding me? I know that you'll eventually put them on me, so why play the games?"

Last night was a new one for us. Kali was down to her diaper and running from my attempts to put her into her pink pajamas. Out of desperation I put her pajama bottoms on my head and said, "Kali, look Mommy's wearing your jammies. You'd better come put them on!" Contrary to the responses of any of her siblings, Kali grinned at me and immediately grabbed Sabrina's discarded pink shirt and started pulling it on her head. Hey, it looked like so much fun she just wanted to join the party too!
