Mad Mummy

[Chub Chub]

To my Gorgeous MJ

I am so Sorry for losing my temper with you yesterday. I know that you are not yet comfortable doing Number 2's on the toilet but asking to go "wee wee" 25 times in half an hour is enough to drive any one with the paitence of a saint around the twist!

Mummy is sorry for yelling at you and smacking your bum bum. Mummy has smacked you twice in your lifetime and she cries every time and so do you. She promises to try every other method of discipline rather than a smack. MJ, you are such a good girl but rarely when you are bad you have Grand Stand Tanties which is what occurred yesterday.

Today you have had such a turn around and Mummy still feels terrible about yesterday, she cried in bed with
daddy for most of the night . Today you have been exceptionally good, it is hard to imagine your behaviour yesterday....you are a different child.

I love you my cherub please be a good girl and Mummy promises to be a good mummy

Love MJ's Mummy

Ohhhh my young fella was the same, though he's improved. Would NOT poo, sat on the toilet and got straight off, HEAPS of times and it drove me crazy.

Don't be hard on yourself, pleeease. That's a beautiful message to your daughter. Let that mother guilt go now...

Chub Chub I know exactly how you feel.

My DS had a lot of fun stomping banana into the carpet today, and I lost it big time with him.

I just try to remind myself to count to ten and breathe deeply, sounds corny, but it usually works.

Thanls so much girls! I have had massive Guilty Mummy Syndrome all day today

I actually got the idea of writing a letter to my daughter from Guv..she did one a while back, although hers had some humour to it. It really helped straighting out my emotions today.

MJ is such a good girl and I do realise how blessed I am but she is learning to push my buttons. I have a history of anger issues and really get disappointed these days when I lose control (thankfully it doesn't happen too often any more). I need to implement better ways of dealing with my anger as I do't want her to learn how not to behave when angry.

Thanks again for the support
