I really think that I just might need to be on medication or in a coo-coo house for about a week to help me get through the trying mornings with my sweet child Madeline. I have officially reached my "wits end". Now before I go into this blog please remember that I LOVE MY DAUGHTER but at times she can be TERRIBLE. We have known for awhile that she loves to be the center of attention and that she wants everything HER way (i'm sure she doesn't get that from me..he he), and can be very manipulative - but here lately she has been on a rampage. My life it the mornings is nothing less than a category 5 hurricane.
To make a L-O-N-G story short, we have a knock down, drag out argument/fit/tantrum every morning for some reason or another. Yesterday she wanted to drink some "lemonade" BEFORE she got dressed but we don't do that...we have to get dressed FIRST and she didn't like that so she proceeded to throw a fit. Today she wanted Cheerios and NOT square cereal (Chex) but we are out of Cheerios and she proceeded to throw a fit, crushing the cereal, throwing blankets, screaming, crying ( I had to give her a nice bottom busting and put her in her room). These are not little fits, these are full blown terrible 2 fits and I have had
E-N-O-U-G-H! We battle it out EVERY morning and I think I am about to have a mental breakdown. I have sent her to school every morning with a RED face, puffy eyes, and an attitude b/c of her fits. AAAHHHH!
This is a picture of her grumpy self eating applesauce b/c she didn't get cheerios.
And my sweet Roan just sits and listens to it all without a complaint one. You can tell he is thinking, must we do this E-V-E-R-Y morning.
If only we could all be as happy as him. I hope you have a better day that I have had this morning.....blessings to all!
