Today I am thankful for...
I'm sure that I am thankful for lots of things...
My mind is clouded over from the last 24 hours of having to deal with this.
This is the look that followed her notifying me that it was all my fault that she didn't get to watch Pink Panther today.
Look at that face!
OH DEAR!
She came home from school yesterday so excited because her class got to look through Christmas catalogs and choose a toy and then they wrote a letter to Santa asking for that toy.
Well, after looking up the toy she chose on line and discussing the actual function of this toy she started to freak out because she wanted a doll house instead.
No amount of problem solving on my part was going to fix it.
(FYI she will change her mind 10 time before it is made official)
Bedtime came and the usual issues arose. 45 minutes of yelling, crying, and taking away her things of which I referred to as shit. Lets just say that struck a new nerve because her things are not to be called that apparently.
We were both in quite a state.
Her attitude wasn't much better this morning.
She improved with the threat of how her dad might deal with her when he gets home.
I think I'm in for it when she grows into her attitude.
Despite it all I have great hopes for tomorrow.
Tomorrow is going to be awesome.
I know what I am thankful for!
Tomorrows.
No matter how bad we screw up today we always get to try again tomorrow.
See I knew I was thankful.
