E woke up from her nap. She was obviously 'hupset'. That's what I call it when E turns upset from being hungry. So I offered her some applesauce. Told her she could even put the cinnamon on top. She suggested yogurt instead. I asked if she wanted blueberry or strawberry. She whimpered. I told her to use her words. And then my just 26-month old child said to me. "Emmy just feeling frus.ter.ated."
Excuse me?!?
{trying to hide my surprise at her accurate labeling of her feelings...} "oh really? What's frustrating?"
"Just want chicken nuggets. Not yogurt."
Yup. That's my two-year old. And in case you're wondering, no, we did not eat chicken nuggets for an afternoon snack.
She's a gem.
Makes me happy. Need to see that sweet face soon. :)
