Parenting is a trip!
Amy is learning how to be hurtful. I think this is a natural consequence of socialization. I'm sure you Mom's out there are thinking, I haven't seen anything hateful from a 3.5 year old, relative to what a teenager can dole out. Heck, I know! I was a hateful teenager. Are there any mom's reading this?
But Amy did two hurtful things this week. At one point I was asserting my authority, and she said, "You are not going to be my friend, ever!". I had to fight laughing while telling her she can't talk to her mommy that way. The other hateful thing is that when I ask for kisses now, she says she doesn't need one and RUNS FOR THE HILLS.
Here's a picture of the angel getting her hair cut. Kids today! She gets to pick what movie they play on a flat screen monitor, she gets to pick what chair (airplane, firetruck, etc), and she gets to pick a prize at the end. No wonder she doesn't mind outings to get her hair cut.

HM, HM, HM,
Yes there is a mommy out here listening. Well, seems to me you are getting a taste of your own medicine..,, and it does get worse. But then it also seems to turn out all right. After all, look at you today. Love, Grandma
don't worry Janet. I used to tell my poor mom that I hated her! And I always told her to change when I didn't like what she is wearing. my mom is my best friend now. So keep loving. Thank goodness my mom did. :) ( although this is one of the major reasons why I am hesitant to be a mom. I am afraid what my child will do to ME!) you're the best and one day Amy will appreciate it. tehan
don't let her do that 2 u janet....YOU are the Mommy (boss)
