Here Comes Trouble


First, I want to make it very clear that I love my daughter. She is a special gift and brings immeasurable joy to my life. That being said: my daughter has become a child posessed. That's right, a little monster has taken over my sweet Hanna. (I thought the bath time picture seemed appropriate.) IT'S THE TERRIBLE TWOS!!!! Joel never had the terrible twos... his came later w/ the frustrating fours. But, wow, is Hanna firmly entrenched! She climbs to the top of everything, including the changing table, the kitchen table, cabinets, bathroom sink...you name it! She pinches and throws holy-terror fits of frustration. She does not like to share. She splits her time between whining pitifully and stomping around saying "No!" She throws things that you ask her to give back or put away. She squeals like a banshee. And during much of her ne'er do well-ing, she watches you with a devilish twinkle in her eye that says, "I'm so very charming and you know you still love me..." Yep, I do.
