She gets it.

We stayed in today. It's rare that we go a full day with out leaving the house. It was a fun filled day but got stressful at times too. We got a lot done...o.k. None of the house work was touched and I spent a good part of the day nursing baby boy while watching food network. But we got into a bunch of craft projects that were fun.

Nearing the end of the day I commented to Lottie "We had a tough day didn't we?"
"Yah" she said.
Me-"I am sorry I yelled at you"
L-"You were maad."
Me- "I WAS mad. Do you know why I was mad?"
L-"I  KI-cked you!"
Me- It had gotten pretty hairy when she refused to let me change her diaper. She indeed did kick me, in the chest, while on the changing table. I was pretty upset and it stayed with me longer than I would have liked
"You DID kick me." "That hurt mama, I didn't like it."
Me- "I like to make you happy, and I like it when you make me happy" "Can we try to make each other happy?"
She gets of my lap and goes to the freezer. I sigh thinking she just doesn't get it.
"Umfh, I can't GET it." she says.
"What are you trying to get?" I ask as I get off the couch.

"Mama. You need to get a Bow-el. We SHARE to-gether"


That does make mama happy :)


 She gets it. I heart her.

  3. so sweet! (and it's so good to hear that I'm not alone in getting kicked during diaper changes and not alone in holding onto that frustration too long)
