We're still having a tough time over here but it's getting better. Seb is still being an argumentative butt head but it's easing. I'm finding it worse in the afternoons, maybe it's the transition to no day sleep? I'm not sure but that kid should be a lawyer when he grows up.
Even though it's been tough for me, I know it's just as tough for him. I don't remember being 3 but I remember what it was like being told what you can and can't do, how frustrating it must be for my tiny boy to not understand that I say no to things because I love him.
"You cannot have that biscuit instead of dinner because I love you and want you to be healthy"
"You cannot only wear a singlet to school because I love you and want you to be warm"
"You have to wear your hat because I love you and I don't want you to get burnt"
"You have to go to bed now because I love you and we'll all be happier with some sleep"
There's plenty of other things I say no to because I'm the adult and we have rules to help shape seb into the amazing respectful boy that we know he can be.
He may turn into super brat sometimes but hes still the sweetest funniest boy I know.
