Lover him/her sis, but for God’s sake, don’t follow all his/her whims. It will destroy his/her character.
Thank you for your comment and welcome to the blog.
I know this post sounds as though I follow all his whims but as husband can attest, I stand my ground when it’s important.
His character is just fine mashaAllah
lol, i LOVE him.
well, atleast he makes life interesting, yes?
I feel for you…I truly do. Been there too many times with V2, soon v3 will be doing the same. Alhumdulillah its just a stage, and usually doesn’t last long.
I’m not 100% sure, but really — how did my child end up at your house??
He’ll be three in less than a month AND YET THESE CONVERSATIONS HAVE NO END IN SIGHT.
Terrible Twos? But he’s so funny and cute!
