Miss Independent


"ARY DO-IT!" Squawked over and over this past week is making me wonder what happened to the sweet baby I once knew. Now the little girl who lives in this house is so demanding and decisive every second, no matter the situation. I think I could handle wanting to do everything herself even, but it's not just that, this kid has introduced the world of tantrums to me and I don't know how to handle them.
Poor Jed is up to his eyeballs with homework and studying so I'm trying to do the best I can by myself but lately I'm losing the battle of who is really in charge...
Let's hope this phase passes quickly and I learn some new parenting/coping skills in the near future or I don't know if either one of us will live to see her second birthday! Being cute has got to be a survival mechanism:).
