::swoon::
over the weekend we celebrated my niece lucy's birthday (post on that later). there was a pinata and norah managed to snag not one but TWO lollipops. i thought, ok she can hold both but i'm only going to open one. no big deal right? ....right?
well i open the brown one and things were going ok for the first 3 seconds before she tried to eat the red one with the wrapper still on.
me: "do you want the red one instead?"
norah: "OK"
me: "ok, you're all done with brown?"
norah: "OK"
me: "ok, let me have the brown one i'm going to hold it for later"
norah: "OK"
so i re-wrap the brown one and put it in my back pocket so she couldn't see it. i unwrap the red and hand it to her. she is happy for .45 seconds before...
norah: "BOWN? BOWN? BOWN?"
me: "no, you have the red one now we'll save the brown one for later"
norah:
ok, she's a little upset
meltdown city
so sad, so terrible, so down right awful, huh? i mean come on, couldn't i have just given her TWO lollipops at once? even though she just ate cake and ice cream? even though it was almost bedtime? WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?!
i guess i am just the worst mom ever. deal with it, norah.
Oh my! I have looked through your blog and this little girl always seems SO HAPPY! I guess she is normal after all. Thanks for sharing this, and I am enjoying following your blog.

hahaha yes she is definitely a NORMAL 19 month old. she's happy most of the time but she absolutely has her moments like this one. and when she does, i have to document it for proof ;)
