My kids are nuts.  Just so you know: my kids are nuts.  At least the little one is.

 

Terrible 2's, my eye!!  This kid's been 3 for a couple of months, and she just gets crazier every day.  This new thing she does where she wants to run through parking lots is just scary!  What is WITH her?!  And then she laughs about it!  Like driving Mommy to a nervous breakdown is something to giggle about.  I have to hold on to that child's hand like... well, I don't know like what, but tight!

 

They're not called nervous breakdowns anymore, are they?  Well, whatever they're called, I'm headed right for one.  Sigh.

 

I don't think that I'll ever figure out this mommyhood thing!  Is there a single correct way to deal with the insanity and chaos that children bring?  Now what am I supposed to do with a 3-year-old who thinks that running away from Mommy in a parking lot is a fun game?  I've explained the dangers repeatedly, I've yelled, I've begged.... do I keep her in a stroller at all times?

 

I think I'm gonna have to put my kid on a leash.
