What a trying day
Paul was out of town since Monday, stuck in Maine overnight and can’t catch a flight til tomorrow-Sunday. During the week was fine as usual and even Saturday started out great. Bella and I worked on art projects together and had a grand time. We shared breakfast, mid morning snacks, and then I had to go and fall asleep (and all heck breaks loose when your 4 year old is left to their own devices). All in all, it wasn’t too bad but things I just reminded her NOT to do this morning were the exact things she did. I was shocked, although I shouldn’t have been. I got so angry with her after finding the 50th thing she had messed up in the house that I broke down in tears which made her cry too. Then I sat us both down on the couch and held her for a few moments and we cried it out. Then everything was alright and we went on about our afternoon/evening.
She fell asleep on the way home from dinner so it’s an early night for Bella-I’ll get some things finished up around the house before Paul gets home and the horrible few hours we had today will have been all forgotten and forgiven. Dear Bella, I know you were just curious but really? Painting with puffy paint on everything you could think of, getting it on your new Halloween costume and the carpet in your room too? Thank you for staying away from my art project for work-although I’m sure you were tempted. Love you sweetie-have a good rest while you dream of the sushi rolls and banana spring rolls we shared tonight-and don’t eat all my eel roll next time:)!!! And when Mommy says not too much wasabi, you might want to listen next time, of course you’ll learn to love it too.
