Being the single parent to an awesome terrible two year old and still being able to manage to get what needs to be done all day everyday sure requires some fancy foot work. All I here all day is "NO" or "MINE" haha she sure loves these 2 words. I have been cloth diapering since she was born (and before you all think I'm crazy, I may agree but it's not as bad as you think it is) but lately she has figured out how to take them off. So this am I put on a fresh diaper and she runs off into the bedroom only to come back a few minutes later with her pants back on and the diaper missing. Some of you may say this is a great time to start to potty train, expect every time I explain this to her she just screams "NO" haha and runs off.
To top it off I work from home too. I try and explain that most children her age are away from their moms all day. I try play dough, colouring, interactive toys to keep her occupied while I try and "work" and some days she's just under foot all day, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I know I am lucky enough to have the freedom and flexibility to be able to stop the so called working to play with her. Better yet putting a play date to go to the park and being able to actually get something done. I wouldn't have it any other way I just need to learn to set limits with what I can do so she gets the attention she deserves and craves.
