Yay Spring !!
Finally the first day of Spring! This has seemed like a very long winter season. We had a very nice day here in New England, sunny and temps in the 40s. My daughter came back home today acting all sweet too. She wanted to show me the presents she had bought for the little girl down the street who was having a birthday party. She can be such a nice little girl when she wants. Sort of like Dr. Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde. It didn't take 30 minutes for her to change when I reminded her she needed to have something to eat before heading out for the afternoon to a friend's house. She finally agreed upon a slice of bread ( I still think she was switched at birth) 
. I tried my best to ignore her behavior and just focus on the fact that she ate something, anything. My dad has been coaching me on trying to ignore her since he has noticed she is really challenging me and it is really a power struggle. So, since I can't control her I have to learn to control myself. You'd think I'd have learned how to do that by now seeing as I am 40. Maybe I shouldn't have spent those first 36 years screwing around. Go figure.
