I began hitting the 'next blog' button at the ...Hi! I began hitting the 'next blog' button at the top of my page today and lo and behold up your page came. Your twin boys are beautiful. It sounds like you've been through a mother's nightmare and have come through on the other side. Wow. I read the post in which you ask what other moms do for their tantruming (not a word) toddlers. My daughter turned two in March and I don't know if she's unusual...but what works for her is this: when she begins to throw a tantrum I tell her, "This is called a tantrum. where would you like to have it? In the toy room or the bathroom?" (the two private rooms on our main floor). She stomps off to one of them and by the time she gets there the steam of the tantrum is usually gone...or she'll just have a 'pretend one' and come out saying, "I'm happy now!". For her just naming the emotions seems to help. But I've read that separation from the tantrum-ee (another non-word :) is the very best.(If you like reading, "Have a New Kid by Friday" by Kevin Leman is awesome!) It's pointless without an audience. However, I am keenly aware that some toddlers are much more dedicated to their way than my daughter seems to be (I think my infant son may end up that way)...so who knows if this will help at all?? Anyhow, I'm looking forward to reading more of your blog. Very nice photos, too!Jackihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17652228090969230111noreply@blogger.com
