I know the year is going to be a good one when after I set up Sierra with a bowl of oatmeal and Dora the Explorer she comes running into the office saying “I want to give you a hug because I love you!”
This got me thinking that all the things I do for her are finally starting to click inside her brain and all this effort I put into parenting is finally paying off!
Then she realizes she wanted Cheerios instead of oatmeal and proceeds to have a meltdown.
