From the moment I walk in the door at 6pm, they are ON ME. It's the two of them and the dog all clamoring for my attention/affection.<br /><br />Considering bed time is 8pm, when the eldest (almost 3.5yo) is in a foul mood, the only time I get to spend with her during any given day is filled with tantrums and yelling and timeouts and fighting.<br /><br />I hate it. I miss her when I'm at work, and it's miserable if the only time I get to be with her is when she's irrational and throwing tantrums. <br /><br />It's enough to make me want to go back to work.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36650952.post-88386980252662744982013-04-14T21:37:29.175-04:002013-04-14T21:37:29.175-04:00Oh THANK GOD.Oh THANK GOD.Jenny F.

Having him gone most days at kindergarten helps, too :)Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03276995787173932700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36650952.post-65805062211892885742013-04-14T17:10:27.417-04:002013-04-14T17:10:27.417-04:00Just tell me when it will end....?

My four year-old is EXACTLY the same right now and the two-year old isn't much better. I have nothing helpful to say, but am glad that it isn't just a disaster at my house!

I harbor the vain hope that when he's more understandable (what IS a bubb-bll-leeeeg anyways?) he'll be less contrary. SIGH.Jenny F.

Everyone finds that particular picture hilarious. Because it's true.<br /><br />2.) Kiddo is only 21 months. Bug is (I think) ~3.5. Does this mean I have another 1.5 years of this particular insanity?Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15650186640428219734noreply@blogger.com
