So I’ve been talking a lot about how Miss A has recently become quite difficult & is challenging me in ways that I never imagined possible.  On a recent morning, when she was refusing breakfast and insisting on having a dance party…we found a video on demand of Miss Kelly Clarkson’s Dark Side.  She hasn’t stopped watching it since.  We watch it at least 7 times in a row, 3-4 times a day.  She’s intuitive my little one!  Check her out…

I love this little girl with all of my heart.  We are doing everything in our power to work through this tough spot and be as supportive and loving parents as humanly possible.  It is a challenge and Mister LK and I will get through it together.

Ironically, A’s favorite lyric from this song is “Don’t Run Away” and she goes around the house singing it all day….this is ironic since I’d like to run away most parts of the day!  Not to worry Miss A…we’re not going anywhere!  We love you BIG MUCH!

Kelly Clarkson…thank you for singing this song.  I know you or whoever wrote it originally did not have in mind a 2 year old, but apparently the parallels between a young adult who has a few relationship issues and a 2 year old who throws Olympic style tantrums are numerous!  Auntie E thinks you’re fantastic and I’m pretty sure you have a new #1 fan!  Thank you for giving my daughter hours of entertainment and also for giving her something she loves so much that I can use as a reward and consequence in my behavior management!  See ya in August!
