Going through that right now. My youngest is 2.....and wonderfully terrible 😀

I love how they are so determined to do and try everything.
ya, when i was at the daycare i always looked after jackson (2) and mitchelle was a newborn, one day i was away and jackson decided to lock himself in the bathroom because he was mad i wasn't there....... needless to say he made quite a mess 😉 -------- and i regards to presents, got a starbucks barista (which is really a family gift since made coffes for them all day) as well as some books i wanted and two sweaters because it is COLD up the mountain where i go to school 😉

I took every course there was when my older girls were babies. 🙂
It's mainly common sense really. and each and every child is soooo different. So don't rely too much on those books. 😉

true true ----and i must admit that reading formulas about parent-seperation anxiety really didn't help too much when the moms left them at the daycare, just lots of time and effort...but i don't have any children of my own - will be a long while before that happens

It's been a nice quiet day. 🙂 I've rather enjoyed myself. Having a tea and heating up some leftovers now. 😀

Getting a head start on making the nice list again next year 😉

excellent! i think in order to make the nice list i need to be more patient....... i have been wanting to get my slippers, necklace etc. back from a friend and its been hard waiting for the person to contact me because i want my stuff back; not so much because i want it but more because i'm trying hard not to crush on the person, and if i have my stuff back i can cut him out, but as long as he has my stuff theres a connection; i've decided though that the material items aren't that important so worse comes to worse i'll get it all when he gets back from hawaii---i'm an open person but when i'm hurt i like to not neccessarily run; but shut off emotions; i know its a bad defense mechanism; trying to work on it

Just let the things go. They're replacable. The value of your heart however isn't.

And shutting down is the worst way to deal with things. Take it from me....the longer you do it the more it will hurt later. :'(

i know, its not like there was even a fight...... more just an absence of communication --- its not like we were dating, we were just friends....... i just get mad at myself for caring; when i should be more cautious, especially becuase i've been cautious for so long, but lets continue this conversation in the new thread 😉 lol

and its not even like we hung out that much, just a week really, meh, it was just refreshing to hang with a quality guy - whatever, i dont' care, its not like i knew him that well n e ways; and hes going to be gone for 6 months, i know its not good, but just want to harden myself and focus on other things ------- by the way mokko, keep on getting confused about what forums we're talking in 😉 lol
