Oh goodness, it seems the terrible twos have decided to stick around and turn into the tumultuous threes. Molly will be a sweet little angel one minute and then the next thing we know, she's falling apart in front of our eyes.
For some reason, it seems to be especially bad around cousin Will. She gets extremely jealous if he touches any of her things. This last trip felt like Christmas all over again. And the funny thing is, Will isn't even all that interested in Molly's stuff. He'd much rather play with his trains. But my little diva is convinced everyone is after her Barbies. It's so embarrassing.
Of course, I'm always telling Molly to keep away from my stuff. I probably need to model better behavior and find nicer ways to say "hands off."
I know I've said it before, but I'll say it again, parenting is not easy. Just when you think you've got it down, your kid will go and do something like lock her aunt and uncle's bathroom door shut from the inside. At least she keeps things entertaining :)
So, you're saying it doesn't get easier at 3? Crap.
