hi to everyone,
didnt know this part of forum existed. i made screen smaller and poof ther it was.
so here i am thinking i'm being patient with my little one, dealing with her well, etc. until two mornings ago when my boyfriend told me wow you are so nasty to her. i was shocked and ofcourse my usual defensive self and said i have no idea what you are talking about.
she comes into our bedroom most mornings now early mornings though before sunrise yet she talks to me first to ask me if she can. i thought i was being nice.
he said jen she stood there one morning and kept asking you and you were being just plain nasty to her instead of just telling her ofcourse come lay down. i felt so bad. so i made a point of next two mornings when she would come in i just stretched my arms out i figured non verbal is much better before i've had my coffee. then another thing with older one as well. she'll come in and ask for money in a.m. instead of just giving it to her i begin to engage and say why can't you ask me at night why do you do this every morning. so anyway he jsut started getting up adn giving it to her to aviod the whole scene. yes i know why doesn't she ask during day?? anyway so its' likea freak show here the in and out of our room there should be one of those cool revolving door thingies. rin comes in first then he's up at 6a.m. then older one's in by 6:30 i'm still sleeping he's dressed getting bag for work, then when 5 kids are here it's just a constant flow. one night we had 3 kids in our bed. our bed isn't that big. ugh
so all being said and done i guess i'm being nasty to kids and didn't even realize it. i felt really bad and noticed that when i changed my nasty tune how their little reactions were so different.
does anyone else get tapped out and loose your patience with them sometimes??
