Surely I can't be the only one who finds the constant contrariness of toddlers totally exhausting? Not to mention the cleaning involved. So far today I've cleaned crayon off the door frame (crayons are now confiscated) and cleaned all the juice out of his toy kitchen's sink (juice cup now confiscated and available only on demand and supervised).
Am I expecting too much of a 2 year old? Is he just saying No for the sake of it? Is it all getting on top of me because I'm nearly 38 weeks pg?
