Question about terrible two's

OK I am at my witts end with my llittle princess. As cute as she iis, she is beyond tough. Sara has such bad temper tanturms if she does not get her way. She even wakes at night and cries. It is so dffucult . Does anyone else have this with their 2 year old? I have an older child and I never went through this with him.. I need some advice

On a lighter note, when I ask Sara how old she is she replies .................. 13 I guess she thinks she is a teenager

Re: Question about terrible two's

I refer to my Emily as my little princess or my little diva girl all the time because that is exactly what she is. She can be so "spirited" sometimes, to put it lightly.

There are things that make it worse. She had no nap today, and that made it really bad. She was snotty, cranky, growling, just really bratty late in the afternoon.

When she gets really snotty at me I try to kill her with kindness. I also try to explain to her that it's not nice to yell at mommy, that mommy takes care of her and loves her and is nice to her.

I think it just goes along iwth having a little girl, and I HOPE it's a phase but I have a feeling we'll be seeing bits of it here and there for the rest of our lives!
