Schedules = buzz killers. As mothers, we live by the schedule beginning with infant sleep schedules, feeding schedules, then bm scheds to potty train, followed by school schedules, bath time, homework, football practice (for us it's lacrosse and basketball)and waiting up to make sure teenagers don't bust curfew...schedule, schedule, schedule. What a breath of fresh air you might be to plan and execute something outside of the sched - something that requires nothing on her part but to be present and enjoy.

Take her OUT OF THE ORDINARY. And if she won't go, you should go anyway. She'll notice that she's missing out and that has a return as well.

Cheers.
