Two days ago I bought her a mattress and sheets and put them on the floor in her room. The first night she had a little difficulty but was asleep by 830. Two naps and one more night of sleep later she seemed fine and well adjusted to sleeping in a big girl bed.
Then we got to tonight. It is now after 10 and G is finally quiet. For over 2 hours she desperately fought going to bed. I am scared to go check on her for fear that she is not asleep and having her start crying again.
It has really been a battle of wills. Whose willpower is stronger? Hers to fight sleep or mine to (mostly) ignore her?

After I finished writing this, I thought she went to sleep so I went in to check on her, only to find S in there trying to get her to go to sleep. I told S she had to stay out, that G had to get herself to sleep. Finally, about midnight, G fell asleep. I had gone in there again, got her some stuffed animals, and told her to stay put. I think really at that point she was just exhausted. REALLY hoping tonight is much easier.
At least she is cute...
