What I've realized about parenting and life maybe is just when you don't think you can take one more second, you get a reprieve. It has been a little difficult living with the second lady of the house lately. Just last night I was referencing Toddler 411 and How to Handle your 2-5 year old's Most Exacerbating Behavior for suggestions on some of the most recent behaviors that have made me strongly consider installing a margarita machine in my car.
Then tonight we had the loveliest evening together. I am thankful for the wonderful play and conversation we shared. Even if she wakes up tomorrow grumpier than ever it was nice to have a glimpse of what's on the other side.
