I have been thinking about a lot of things the way our week has been going.
What things should I change and what things should I leave the same?
How could I handle the situations better so she isn't tempted to lie?
How do we handle things when she can't handle that the attention isn't on her all the time?
They are a part of this family and every one gets attention at different times. The adoption is final and they are the same as any other child in this family.
We have been working on Haylee's baby talk and Hannah started talking like a baby. Ugh!!
How do you handle a child that wants what they want when they want it, no matter what? She does whatever it takes to get her way or what she wants, without considering the effect on anyone else.
She is staring more and more at my husband and I. Is she trying to figure out how a Mommy and Daddy act? What is the deal? I seem to be catching her staring more and more in public. The other kids usually notice it before me and tell her to stop.
I feel like I am having to be on my toes all of the time again. I feel like we have backed way up again in the trust department.
This is exhausting...
Me too. Me too. Me too. I am living all these same things. I am exhausted too. I have no answers or suggestions but at least you know you are not alone. Hang tough.
