4 year olds and PMS

OK......lest the regular readers of this blog (is there more than 1?) think we are a combination of the Cleaver/Huxtable/Walton families...spending every weekend in happy bliss while I drop meaningful witty lines everywhere.....today was not a happy Sarah-Daddy day....

The tantrums started early and often....after a parental stand off that damn near required an intervention by the National Guard (are there any left in this country?) Sarah finally pulled herself together and we went to a children's museum. She was petrified of a fairy tale exhibit. (Remember, last week she was up for throwing herself down an icy hill in an inner tube.) We decided to go see a puppet show...."Salsa Cinderalla".

If you're familiar with the brilliant comic Jeff Dunham's "Jalapeno on a Stick"....it was just like that! Except....not funny. Or Brilliant. Or Entertaining.

Afterwards Sarah and I went out for pizza. In true 4 year old with PMS character, she didn't want any pizza....until I got mine...then she wanted mine....all of it.

Some days Sarah is a joy....some days she is a challenge.
