Three-year-old is trying to drop the paci. Very hard. Big feelings. But one of their front teeth is beginning to show trauma so it needs to go. I feel terrible for letting it go on this long and ever worse for the separation anxiety it’s causing them.
One-year-old has decided eating must be on their terms. They also learned “No” can be an answer to every question, which has lead to unintentionally funny situations.
Me “Would you like the last strawberry?”
1yo “No.”
Me “Lol ok I’ll eat it.”
1yo “😦!!!”
(I don’t actually eat the strawberry. I model saying “Yes” to things they want. I’m not a monster.)
