I really never thought that Alaria would go through the "terrible two" phase. She was always so mellow and sweet and cooperative...unlike the boys at an early age. Their terrible two phase started between 12-18 months and lasts til about 4 years of age (yes, Josh is still stuck there!). Anyway - Alaria didn't show any of those signs. I was so relieved. Well there is something magical about the age of two. It almost seemed that on her birthday she transformed. Instead of becoming a planet-saving robot (transformed...haha) she turned into a sassy little terror. Of course she throws fits, but here are a few examples of what she says to me when she gets mad(usually as she's hitting me):
"Stupid!"
"You are stupid"
"I don't like you anymore"...followed by "I don't like Colee anymore" and whoever else is in the room
and my favorite.... "I chuck you out the window. And you die". If I tell her it's not nice she'll usually repeat it in a sweet little voice. Something about hearing her "sweet voice" saying "and you die" is a little disturbing.
However...I can't help but laugh when she says these things.
Maybe it's because she's the third child. Maybe it's because she's the only girl. Whatever it is, I can't get mad, she is just too dang cute!
