Am I really being paid back for my young, precious, attitude that I had as a child??? I'm sure I was NO where near as crazy as my son is....(no comments from my family - extended family included!) LOL....how can someone so cute......be so.....not cute!!!
Ok - here is the deal - if I'm not being hit, I'm being looked at with non adoring eyes, growled at, pinched, kicked, door slammed in face, drums sticks thrown at walls, tongue stuck out, eyes once again rolling back in the back of his entire head - I mean - come on - you would think that I'm the worst parent on the block and it could be as simple as something like - "No, Jake, you can't stick your hand in the oven door while the cake is baking!"
Now, don't believe for one minute that he doesn't get in trouble for this kind of behaviour - but some of it is so hard to not laugh at because I can totally see me giving my dad and mom some of this same grief (and Mom Shirley too if the truth be told!). However, I know for a FACT that I would have been picking myself up off the floor if some of this attitude had been given to my father.....whew - I don't even want to think about that....those were the days -when you could discipline your child without having to worry about who was watching you.
Of course, for those who don't know me - I was exactly like him and the funny thing is - I get the blame when my nieces and nephews act just like me - like I had anything to do with them being created - but whatever!!! (ROFL). Hannah and Kidron are alot like me and probably get in the most trouble for just acting like Aunt Karen - but, oh well - when it's not my kid - I think it's funny!!!
Anyway - terrible two's are officially extended into the terrible five's and I'm just wondering..........when does it end????
Love to all

Ok, what is REALLY cute is that you think it ENDS! :) HA! Enjoy every moment (like I know you do), 'cuz when you get to the next stage...you'll want this one back.
okay it is true when they are little they walk on your toes but when big they walk on your heart and believe you me you would rather this stage than later.....
MMMMMMM I can remember a few times thay you sure walked on your dad's and my heart. You sure kept us praying plenty for a while. Thank God for Mark, the answer to our prayer and now poor him is having to reap also through Jake.HA
Yes Karen, sometimes little ones get attitudes and I don't think they really have to get them from any one that is just life with kids. Oh but we love them and just think Grandkids are so special that we wish we would have had them first. LOL
love,
Mom/Shirley
