a ray of hope

ok this has been a really tough week. you know things are bad when i'm happy to go to work, so that someone else can deal with the tyrant known as evie. she has just been a bit of a terror for the past week, and i find myself looking for any signs that this is going to pass and not that she is going to torment me with "don't want it" tantrums for the next 16 years.

last night, i found my sign.

she was in the tub and having a tantrum. i can't explain what it was over, cause it's never quite clear. the one good thing about the tantrum is that it gave me a chance to look into her mouth and see that she has a new molar.

hmm. that might explain why she told us her "mouth hurt" last week and why she's been waking up in the middle of the night crying for a little more than a week. oh, and hey while i'm blaming the tooth for those things, maybe this hair trigger temper has something to do with having a toothache?

if you don't believe it, please don't tell me, cause i just want to enjoy this for a little while longer. and because even if it is the tooth, i know that there are still three left to come...
