There was a little girl,
Who had a little curl,
Right in the middle of her forehead.
When she was good,
She was very good indeed,
But when she was bad she was horrid.
Thank you Mr Longfellow. You've really summed it up.
I don't know what it is lately, but my child's temper has been truly awful. She has no patience for her own failure, no tolerance for other's behaviour and turns into a grumpy mess by dinner time. We are all exhausted by it. Sure, we've been on holiday and she's still recovering from that but I think there's more to it than that. While I would very much like to blog some more and make lots of Poppets over the coming weeks (in between hanging out with my Mum who arrives on Tuesday, yay!) I have to admit defeat and spend some quality time with this small person who is having so much trouble coping with the world. No doubt she will bounce back very soon, but for now it's cuddles and Mum-time and a lot less tv ahead of us.

See you soon!
Poor poppet. I think we forget how hard it is to be small. That cartoon is pretty funny too :) Cuddle her lots, it won't be long before she won't want a bar of you. XX
ReplyDeleteI know, I'm trying to keep all of that in mind. There's been too much juggling going on...
