(Watching the rain)
Scarlett has been quite a handful these days. I bathed her 6 times in 2 days. Why? Mascara to the face/lips, vaseline to her hair (and baby Ali), waffles/syrup mishap, and numerous "accidents". It has been a rough couple of days. For the last year Scarlett has had some major "poop issues." She insists on holding it in and then becomes possessed by the "poop demon", as we so lovingly call it. For two-three days she will cry constantly and whine and be mean and whine, all because she will not go. It is bad and it drives me crazy. I need therapy. I finally took her to the doctor and just as I expected they had no real answers except " just be patient and she will out grow it". Oh, and drug her up with Miralx. So from now until she is 6 or 7 I must practice a lot of patience.

So when days get hard I will look at these... her singing the "temple song" and drawing after a bath.
She is my precious 2 year old only once and I can not waste it being mad at her.
Jill, you rock. And I have no doubt you're the best mom ever, even on the hard days! I just threw an award your way if you want to check it out =0) xoxo!
ReplyDeleteIf you've figured this out already...you beat me by a couple years. I know I sound like the cute old lady down the street....but she will grow up faster than you can even imagine. I swear Noah was 2 last year and look at him. He poops just fine now, but potty training was awful! I remember him peeing on my piano off the 2nd story landing. I love ya...hang in there1
