A blank screen sometimes says more than one filled with words. Thinking of what I wanted to blog about has been a struggle this week. I have a lot going on yet none of them make out full thoughts. My mind goes from thinking about how sometimes you have to do a clean out of people in your life to be able to move on. How much Emily grows everyday and every second it seems. Then to why hasn't her father called or sent a text to see how his daughter is doing. Also thinking about Halloween, how it will be two years since Emily was made, wondering if Em's going to want to stay in her costumes, what exactly we're going to do, how we have yet to go to the pumpkin patch, and I hope that she has fun. Oh and what has gotten into my daughter to be more vocal (having the little "terrible twos" fits) since she's the only girl and 1 yr old at daycare (all the boys are between 2-3yrs old) she tends to get spoiled. Emily is a quick learner and I know she learns how to act from those boys especially when they throw their fits.
Trying to teach your child they cannot act like a spoiled little person is sometimes challenging. Although they look so adorable when they do their "fit" you have to let them know that it's not normal to pull that kind of behavior. They will see a little at a time what they can and cannot do you just have to be firm but calm when informing them they are not doing something appropriate. Emily knows now what time-out is and if she does something that is not appropriate she goes in there. She also knows how to let herself out of time-out meaning she just walks out of it mumbling something and hugging me.
I love that my daughter is a quick learner and she absorbs everything like a sponge. I just know by what she's learning now from the boys she is turning into her mother. This could be a bad thing or it could be a good thing... guess well just have to wait it all out. My screen is no longer blank it is full of words.
