Button Pusher

She loves to push Buttons on every existing gadget in the house. She has taken 'pushing buttons' to another level. "NO" we all yell, say, scream. She doesn't listen. I google how to handle this naughty behaviour. It is us who needs to encourage the positive and cheer the positive and not the negative. No more saying "No", and more drinking wine and saying yes child, yayyyyy, good girl!

Time to Clear the Slate

Another reason to have a baby:
If you've had messed up relationships, been hurtful, violent, etc to others (created to many enemies). Having a baby jolts your emotions, your senses, not only do you become compassionate about others, you become SENSITIVE! You cry, feel, and hurt other's pain. Shit, even an animals!

Another Shot

I keep hearing have another one, have another one. My god if only having babies was like having 'shots'. How much fun it would be. You wouldn't remember a thing. It would happen so fast: woo-hooooo and then they're 18!

Letters

I'm painting her wooden letters in a variety of 'pop' colors that will be glued to her bedroom wall. I feel like Colonel Aureliano Buendía in Gabriel García Márquez's "One Hundred Years of Solitude", who painted little fishes. Here I am sitting by the open window, watching the rain drizzle away and the air blow dry the wet letters.

She arrives, standing by my side. I see her thoughts: what can I destroy, eat, throw? She goes for the letter "W" and knaws on it. Then she loses interest and moves to the next pile of mess to be messed with.
