Whoever came up with the 'terrible twos' was on crack.

As Kieran stands on the threshold of three years, we're beginning to wonder if we're going to survive the melodrama that seems to accompany this time. This morning's major meltdowns were a torn construction paper butterfly (made over a year ago) at 6:30 & dumping an entire bottle of bubble solution on my little lithodora in the backyard at 11:30. I'm amazed none of the neighbors called CPS by how much Kieran was wailing & carrying on outside.. or maybe my husband will get a knock on the door this afternoon, who knows.

Both situations were relatively easy to fix (I traced a new butterfly from the remains and put it on the old one's stick to 'fly' again & partially refilled the bubble bottle with a stern warning to not throw it again) but re-establishing emotional equilibrium took substantially longer. I'm hopeful my lithodora will be ok and know that somehow we'll make it through all this.. but ugh.

OH, the things I've missed!

And it all makes having sex sound so bloody dangerous....

I get the same thing! And then people have the cajones to tell me I'm being "selfish" if I don't give my son a sibling. How so?

1. He's loved and cared for in each and every way by both his parents and doesn't have to compete for our affection or attentions

2. We will be able to put something away for his college education

3. We are still able to have somewhat of a marriage, owing to the fact that his needs are met, which can only benefit him

Happy birthday, by the way!!! I'll have to update my LJ to reflect how mine went yesterday...
