Terrible Twos Already?

Just like no one tells you that the first three months are rough, or that breast feeding can be very challenging, no one tells you that the terrible twos start before age 2! Now don't get me wrong, I would never use the word terrible to describe Hannah, as she's a delight. But we now understand what people mean when they say their kids are in their terrible twos.

For Hannah, that means learning how to use the word "no" (Hannah, can I have a kiss? No!), and a stronger personality. It's actually quite funny. When she gets upset, her entire body tenses up and she whines or screams. Two seconds later, it's over and she's on to something else, but staying patient during the outburst is an artform.

Even though she's entered a new phase of her self expression, as you can see from the pictures, she's still an amazing little girl who inspires us to love in ways that we previously couldn't imagine. She's out sweet boiba. Our Louie. Our Zeesa Punim. Our Hannah.
