Why are you crying?

My daughter had never once watched TV before we flew to Portugal. Despite having many choices available, she watched Frozen, on repeat, 3 1/2 times. And then another 3 1/2 on the way back to the US.

I got to sit with the baby, so my husband was treated to this joy.

We now listen to the Frozen soundtrack constantly. And sometimes at 2 in the morning we will hear from her room “Echo…play Frozen”

But the current reason she is crying is because Echo will not play Doc McStuffins for her. For some reason our Alexa’s are offline. She is not used to being ignored by it.

Ok ok, but Frozen is a darn good movie and the soundtrack is :fire:.

So I think your kids all have great taste.

She is crying because I thought making the swiffer knock off short for her would be fun so she could push it. She likes pushing it normally but the handle is too long for her to easily do it. But I think it was interpreted more as “the poor swiffer has been irreversibly harmed”. Fun playtime fail on my part :grimacing:

My child is crying today because we were getting ready for supper and I said she couldn’t have any chips. She doesn’t even like the chip flavor…

The Montessori accounts make it look so cute and happy! I had planned for happy toddler helper, not inflicting emotional trauma :woman_facepalming: At least I’m not alone on this one :grimacing:

At least I can reassemble this one and fix it. The UTTERLY TERRIFYING bouncy unicorn she got for her birthday from my PT friend is still hidden away in the garage.

Because Mum wouldn’t let me watch Gabby’s Dollhouse until I washed my face and hands and then when I was definitely clean she insisted on actually wiping the Nutella off my face and hands herself. Doesn’t she know that Nutella was clean? I just washed it with soap!

Because I fell off my chair and hurt my arm and Mum called up Dad to come home from his massage and I’m worried Dad will not be fixed and also, I hurt all over.

I dropped a wood coin into a tall drawer, and now I can’t get it out again, because I dropped it in. Then when mom gave it back, the same thing happened! :rage:

This was Baby, my husband, and me at 3 AM last night. 2/3 of us had tears for that reason.

Son: Because Mom put my jacket on.

Daughter: Because my brother is kicking his feet and making noise, like I ALWAYS do, but I don’t want him to do it because it is a loud sound that I’m not making.
