It is just another day here around our house. I have been working, and trying to stay on top of chores here at home, all while dealing with Johnathan who wants to go here and do that. I'll have to admit as he is gaining more and more independence, it is getting harder and harder to do things with him.
Tonight we took him to a local festival, that we have taken him to since he was a newborn. Only this time, he wanted to walk around, which would have been fine had he listened to us and just simply behaved. He usually is one of the most well behaved little boys that you would ever meet, but not today, he was totally defiant with everything that he was asked or told to do, refused to listen, and almost wandered off when he wouldn't hold either of our hands. It is days like today that get me the most. I am extremely defeated, things that we should be enjoying with our son, we instead are frustrated and just exhausted with all of this. We had so many things planned yet this weekend, and now we are considering not doing them because of the less than desirable behaviors that we had encountered tonight. Not sure what to do, other than pick up the pieces and call it a day, and hope that maybe tomorrow truly is a new day, and we have less issues...
