Keeping up to a two year old is hard work and now that I'm slowed down with my prosthetic and phantom pain Miles is hard work X 100. I'll give you an example of today. Wakes up goes to the kitchen won't eat breakfast just wants apple juice and cookies; after 2 glasses I tell him he has to have water and he then throws his sippy cup across the kitchen. While I nurse the baby he helps himself to 5 packs of fruits snacks while on his sixth I finish nursing and take it away and tell him no more. He hits me and throws himself to the ground with his blanket and cries. While I'm in the bathroom he gets in the fridge and tries to drink the half full coke and spills it all over the floor. I take it away and he hits me and walks through the spilled pop. Then I wash his sticky body while he kicks and screams. He gets into the toilet and fills his cup and starts drinking it when I find him. Later I find him in the fridge again with his tractors lined up inside and he's drinking yogurt from the large container. He gets his dads deodorant and takes and bite and then decides he doesn't like that and comes and cuddles with me smelling like a man. While I'm rocking the baby to sleep this afternoon and the older 2 kids are playing Ty asks where Miles is. After a search of the house comes up empty he is found outside halfway around the block in boots and his diaper. I also found an overly ripe banana squished into the carpet where he'd been playing with his tractors. I'll stop here.
Now he' sleeping but that was no easy feat as he climbed out of his crib 10 times before giving up and drifting to sleep. I take that back I just went to turn off the alarm that is going off in his room and I couldn't open the door so I pushed really hard only to find out Miles had fallen asleep in front of the door. Oh how I love this 2 year old!!
So this boy is pushing me to my limits but I'm glad he is. My missing leg is only slowing me down not stopping me from mothering. Since losing my leg Miles gets lots more horseback rides from me!!

ReplyDeleteIn a report says that a lot of missing children are happening every hour in the world. Most of these children are seldom found. Parents should be watchful and careful also because most of this happens at children's park and malls.
ReplyDeleteI am Mariam used every single spell worker on the internet, spent untold amounts of money and discovered they are all fakes...i was the fool though; doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. In the end, I decided that I wanted a tarot reading to know what my future held for me; I contacted a woman who lives locally to me and she told me about a man named (Priests Abija); he does not advertise on the internet, has another job for income, has no set prices, makes no false promises and refuses to help anyone that cannot be helped and even helps for free sometimes, he will give you proof before taking money. He is a wonderful man and he was the only person who actually gave me real results. I really hope he doesn't mind me advertising his contact on the internet but I'm sure any help/ extra work will benefit him.contact him here as +447053820826 or spirituallighthealing101@live.com He travel sometimes.i cant give out his number cos he told me he don’t want to be disturbed by many people across the world..he said his email is okay and he’ will replied to any emails asap,love marriage,finance, job promotion ,lottery Voodoo,poker voodoo,golf Voodoo,Law & Court case Spells,money voodoo,weigh loss voodoo,any sicknesses voodoo,Trouble in marriage,HIV AIDS,it's all he does Hope this helps everyone that is in a desperate situation as I once was; I know how it feels to hold onto something and never have a chance to move on because of the false promises and then to feel trapped in wanting something
