my SWEET child was a NIGHTMARE today! 3 full-blown, vicious tantrums. it was unbelievable, really. i don't know if ti's cuz she has a cold (tho she never acts like that when she's sick), or cuz she's sleep deprived (again, she gets cranky and whiny, but not screaming tantrum-like) from waking up too early. she hasn't had an actual tantrum in probably 2 years. today it's like she was possessed. seriously, this kid is always trying hard to please people, making sure everyone's happy with her, this was just so not her. i just really hope she's back to her old self tomorrow! i just had to vent. anyone else wanna vent? vent away!
I might need to vent later Danielle, I am riding solo on a class trip with both of my kids. But I wanted to give you a big :hug: I think her issue is probably a combo of being sick and tired. Hope she is feeling better soon.
Big :hug: to you!!! My guess is she's just not herself from being sick and tired...we all snap under those circumstances! I have a 'locks herself in the bathroom so she can watch herself cry in the mirror drama queen'!! She threw an over hour long tantrum last night because I would not let her have marshmellows for dinner. :grr:
I bet it's the sleep/sick thing too.. whenever mine are feeling slightly off their heads start to spin on their bodies and I feel the need to call in a priest. Miles was sick for a few days and was totally unbearable yesterday. Last night he put himself to bed early and slept in a little bit today and is the most pleasant child. What a difference a little sleep makes!
thanks, guys :grouphug: today seems to be better... i do not think i could handle another day like yesterday!
