Bravery!

Jordan surprises us. Every once and a while, when you least expect it… She does something amazing. We were all playing in the playground at Cam’s school this afternoon when Jordan climbed up and just slid down the slide TWICE. No need to sit on my lap. She just DID it. I love it.

I’m so tired. I’d go on and on about the girl, but I’m running out of energy. But here’s the summary about what’s going on with her:

She’s almost 2.

The tantrums come and go. Her moods and needs are more dramatic. She’s starting to create rules and needs and we are all supposed to follow those rules — except we don’t know what the rules are. Cam did the same thing. Tonight I had to put her to bed when she started screaming at the dinner table for “more cheese!” She ate all of the mac and cheese and wanted MORE!! She was so upset that she tried to dump the rest of her dinner all over the table and floor. Randy and I were able to put a stop to that before it got too messy. But man was it murder getting the girl dressed and put down for sleep. She was ANGRY. The highs and lows with her are just a bit more exaggerated this week. I’m hoping this will pass… Hopefully when her final three teeth poke through.
