First you have her going that today is gonna be a really nice day and make sure you are a good boy and eat your breakfast w/out whining that "I'm not hungry" or "I don't want that".
Then, before we get to the park...and mommy stops at the store for some water so i have a drink (and coffee for her of course) make sure you and your friend start chanting at 10 am "RED JUICE, RED JUICE, RED JUICE" from the back seats....cuz you know she really wants you to have a slurpee in the morning- gotta have the sugar!!
Make sure to have your first fit within ten mins of being at the park...and make sure it's over a metal bouncing motorcycle that you sit on...cuz the metal bouncing whale and horse are just not the same thing.
After yet ANOTHER random tantrum and mommy threatens to go home...make sure you RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN ACROSS THE PARK! because that won't make things any worse...the farther she has to chase you, the happier she will be with you!
Let's just skip thru a few hours and some more tantrums and a few time-outs, shall we????
When the day continues over to your best friend's house for some cooling off in the pool... make sure you FIGHT OVER EVERY TOY your friend picks up...make sure you splash your friend in the face with water every time mommy says not to...and make sure that after you are told to behave over and over...that you refuse to take a nap because, "i know i was being mean, i won't be mean anymore mommy. i promise!". and THEN even though mommy put all the toys away so that we would have nothing to fight over...FIGHT OVER THE WATER.
why did mommy take me home early?
love,
Gavin
it's been a really "challenging" day for this Mommy and I'm not kidding. The thing is, he is a REALLY good boy...just sometimes you have days like this one! I love my son more than anything in the entire world but I think I need a drink. A big one. And as i look over my shoulder i see that my lil man has FINALLY passed out just this minute. Sweet dreams my love.
