You have something I don't have (but, I am trying) PATIENCE! You've at least got that on your side! :-) Evan (3.5) calls me "a big dummy" in the most hated way a 3-year old knows how. Why does he call me this? Because I want to wash his hair! He whines and cries so badly if I don't feed him chocolate, popsicles or just a big bowl of sugar for breakfast (some days, I am rewarded with a toast or pancake request). He also will NOT sleep in his bed. By 3am every night, he's in our bed and will cry until we give in....Okay, that's just 3 little things! :-) I'd get a C in discipline from "nanny 911" and Scott would receive an F! But, we do what we do and how we think it works best for us, our home and our family. All kids are unique...they go through wierd things, fun things, sweet things, mean things and crazy things, but we, as mothers have to be strong for them no matter what stage they are in. We must seem so stable to them! All in all, they call for us when they need something. I think they are like dogs (and I know you can relate). A master, even when diciplining never does wrong. Maybe they forget the bad stuff and always remember the good, loving parts of the motherhood responsibilities we so much enjoy!?! I only assume this to age 3 and a 1/2. That smile, kiss, hug or something special they made for us is the "real" child we created. All the negative is just the way a baby handles life...Tomorrow is a new day, my friend. It's an all new day! Keep smiling, M! Your doing a phenomenal job!!!mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16669350905348631490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-511359622952542369.post-23482751958008881352009-01-11T16:44:00.000-08:002009-01-11T16:44:00.000-08:00Call grandma, Lily.Call grandma, Lily.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-511359622952542369.post-7446226488859225632009-01-08T08:29:00.000-08:002009-01-08T08:29:00.000-08:00Thank you Mary.
