My sweet little boy,
I love you. I love how sweet, funny, smart, and energetic you are. I love your beautiful blue eyes! I love that you are stubborn and spirited and know exactly what you want.. I think you're gonna need it growing up in this crazy world. I love that you are very independent and particular. However, your stubborn independence is really starting to test my resolve to keep cool no matter what you throw my way.
Like today, when you had 2 separate meltdowns causing me to flee from 2 different grocery stores... each followed by 20 minutes of screaming in the car... ultimately forcing me to give up on any hope of getting groceries bought today. It is my fault after all... How dare I try to help you lift the lettuce into our cart?!
I forget that everything these days is "BY SELF!!" I'm terrible for trying to carry you so that you don't have to walk so far or help you get into your car seat when you are struggling to do it "by self" because you have 5 toys in your hands. The nerve I have to try and help! :)
It's my instinct to help you so sometimes I can't stop myself. Some days you let me help out and others... like today... the second I even touch you it's game over for at least 15 minutes.
So sweet boy... I guess what I'm saying is some days.. like today.. you are very lucky you're so dang cute!

That picture is classic KK. You're such a good mom :)
hahaha...I can relate to this all too well. :) The problem with Macie is that in some cases she wants help with something (like walking down stairs) and other times when I try to help her with the exact same thing she flips. These fickle toddlers keep us guessing! But yes, it's good they are so cute and funny...it all balances out. :) LOVE that picture of Boston!
