Molly has managed to step right into her terrible twos lately. The boys always entered early so it took me by surprise a bit. She is almost three after all.
She has gotten really loud and demanding. The girl can scream, too. She also loves to argue. She thinks burping and farting are funny. (thanks big brothers) She mimics what everyone says all the time which is pretty funny.
At night when I tuck her into bed she always says, “Go tell daddy and go tell ALL the boys”. I have no idea what she wants me to tell them but she says it every single night. (just a little something I wanted to write down so I don’t forget it)
Here are a few highlights from my last few days with a 2 yr old…
I heard her screams and found her in the bathroom with her clothes completely soaked with the sink overflowing and an entire thing of soap emptied into the sink. The water was pouring over the edge of the sink flooding the entire bathroom.
She was playing with playdough and when I told her it was time to go clean it up she informed me that she had already cleaned it up and had put it all in her jeans pockets. You just try to get fresh playdough out of a little girls jeans pockets.
I found Molly and Eli with a box of bars of soap “making a snowstorm” Man, you should see the snow that falls when two kids pound together two bars of soap. It is amazing.
Molly got a tea set for Christmas. What was I thinking asking for a tea set for her. She loves it, but oh the messes a little creative girl can make with a tea set. Of course they have to use water, sugar, food, etc. to have a tea party. (Check out Eli’s arm and you will get an idea of how wet everything was around there.)
So, I try to take pictures and enjoy these days. I know I will miss them someday. I have been watching old home videos of when the others were going through these days. Man, I miss them being this little even though it is hard while you are going through it.
I love my little Molly and don’t want her to ever grow up.
