I had just managed to get DD vaguely civilised then DS hit the toddler years. He is a small destructive inquisitive energetic ball of barely contained FURY and I am a broken woman! Only remembering that DD was the same, and is.now generally reasonable, makes me think I.might survive.
(please.don't say "oh wait.til they're teens. I'll cross that bridge when it comes)
(my DC are.wanted loved and adored)
