For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for June 17, 2022

darn right on that last detail

April is beginning to irritate me more than Shannon in Luann.

We have seen Elizabeth’s bed before and that is not it. No wonder April is so suspicious.

Consider yourself lucky, I didn’t have a big girl bed until I was 6

Someone isn’t ready for a big girl bed yet…

At hær age, April should have a “junior” bed—twin size with fencing around the top half.

I didn’t get a bed until I turned 5.

maybe she might wanna rethink that…

Sometimes, those crib bars keep the kids in, but sometimes the bars keep things out too. Poor girl may already be “institutionalized”. Shawshank Crib Redemption.

Aww… she needs all her stuffies with her.. that would help.

Like the scene in Back to the Future where Marty finds himself at the home of his grandparents.

Mrs. Baines: “You already know Lorraine, these are my other kids” sees baby in playpen “And that is Joey! He just loves his playpen. He cries whenever we take him out so we just leave him there.”

Marty: “So you are my uncle Joey? Better get used to these bars, kid.”

Just need to work through this transitionary phase.

Elly looking pretty fit today.

That girl needs a decent haircut. I’m tired of her looking like Moe from The Three Stooges.

But April eventually grows out of this. Can’t say the same for Shannon (or any of the BabyBlues kids).

Time for a 6-foot tall teddy bear to keep her company.

Cheap ones can be won at carnivals.

April should have gone from a crib to a twin, not a full size bed. Are these each hand-me-down beds? Was this once John and Elly’s bed? Does the bedding (m&s) ever get replaced along the way?

How about reading her a story until she fall’s asleep?
