as i attempt to parent my high energy toddler, i remind myself.... this is a test. part of a 2yr old's purpose in life is to test their boundaries. they push and push because they need to know what the rules are and where the boundaries are. i try to be diligent when i choose my battles, to chose them wisely, and once the battle has begun, to remember that i cannot back down. there are many times i feel like my incredibly fabulous child is pushing me to my limit... wait a minute, that's exactly what he is doing... he IS looking for the boundaries. he IS learning what he can and cannot do. this IS his disposition at this point in his life. so with all this pushing going on, during those times that i come close to losing it with him, i remind myself... this IS a test.
and here's a couple of pictures of my
