This morning my daughter woke up in the worse mood ever!
Which is fair enough we all have bad days.
But she had continued to tested my patients all day.
With little things like not listening mainly.
But a simple instruction to get dressed, & go in the car shouldn't be a big deal.
Most the time she will listen to me, & get dressed..
But today she was not listening to anything i had to say. Instead she would just scream, & every time i would try n dress her she would take it off n throw her body around making it extremely difficult for me to just get her dressed.
As our washing machine has broken i needed to get to the shop to pay the rest of my lay by off so it could be delivered tomorrow.
To also make life a little easier..
But because she had thrown the biggest tantrums for over an hour i couldn't get to the shop on time for it to be delivered tomorrow.. this just tested my patients even more. Trying to get her to settle, & listen to me just wasn't happening.
I hate having to yell n put her in the corner.. but today it had to be done. After awhile she started to settle n get dressed.. after she settled without me asking she said she was sorry. Which was great she knew the way she was behaving was not acceptable..
After she gave me cuddles, & was being all sweet again.. i started to feel guilty for getting so loud n upset with her. I'm generally a very patient person.. but today she tested my patients.
It's wired how a tantrums can send you from going crazy about to rip your hair out.. to then feeling guilty for feeling that way.
Plenty more tantrums to come but it is so odd how motherhood can make you feel so many emotions i never ever felt before.
