Bad Mama!

Lola let Mama know yesterday in no uncertain terms what she thinks of her parenting. In no specific order (or intelligibility), Lola shouted from the other room, with a mixture of anger and sadness, after being denied a choice from Mama's Prize Bag®:You're "odd," and "mean," and "rude.""I don't love you...(in several time variations from "today" to "ever")""I don't love [insert name here]"There were several other pointed and hilarious jabs. It definitely gave us a feel for her teen years.Both kids are in this phase where we never let them do or have anything they want or we always tell them they have to do something like clean or mind their manners.I forgot how terrible and drama-filled life could be as a 4- and 6-year old. It makes me feel like I have it easy at 42.
