So as you may know, Ivy has quite the imagination. A while back, she started pretending she was a tiger, growling and crawling around. Eric bought her a little beanie baby tigerĀ to add to the fun. Sometimes she wants Eric or me to play the tiger and "get her". Now Is it wrong that we exploit that to get her ready in the morning, or at night? If we pretend that the tiger's coming to "get her" and she needs to put her clothes on so he can't see her? When I say it out loud, it sounds so reprehensible, but it's so effective. I just worry that she might develop a fear of wild animals...which, when I say that out loud...doesn't seem all that bad. I mean who wouldn't be afraid of a wild tiger? I mainly just wanted to blog about this because I don't want to forget some of these ridiculous things that we do to accomplish what should be the simplest of tasks.
