Let not the sweet angelic face of this 19 month old little girl fool you into thinking that all you need to do is cuddle and kiss her. Hug her, smell her, tickle her, tumble and laugh together……

For she is a MONSTER.

The worst you could ever imagine.

I never had it so bad with T1, who is now considered  a happy, mild-natured child when put beside her baby sister. I should have seen it coming the moment she was born, all cries and LOUD ones too when she did not get her way. Up to a year old, we ‘ve pretty much been giving her her way, because what does a one year old understand? A lot apparently!!!

Whatever the case, the past is the past and now, we brace ourselves in getting things straight. MOMMY is the boss of us two. We’re still working on that reason being Mommy gets an asthma attack after prolonged baby screaming.

Last week at school, she had wanted some cute flash cards from her teacher but when her teacher gave her a few, she asked for more, the whole stack. The teacher explained that she already had some and they were to share. T2 let out a scream. The teacher said in her most friendly voice that T2 could have it in a minute, as soon as she’s done showing them to the other kids. T2 let out another scream. The teacher then tried to distract her with something else when T2 STORMED off to the corner of the class and pouted. Every few seconds, she’d let out a yell. She was watching us all (and we were all ignoring her) and getting herself worked up into a frenzy when finally her teacher completed her task of teaching the kids and told T2 that she could now have the flashcards.

You should have seen T2 running towards the teacher, all happy, and quickly busied herself with exploring those cute cards.

Sometimes, T2 would irritate her sister by screaming for no reason at all other than not wanting her sister to sit down (yes, she’s a little monster, I’m telling you!) or not wanting her sister to look at her, or wanting her sister to play with her when her sister has to do her homework, or wanting to sleep with a water bottle (which means her sister’s bed would get wet!), or just fighting over a chair (despite the tens of children chairs we have in our living room, which begs to question, why the f*#@ do we have so many kiddy chairs? what’s wrong with sitting on the floor?). Seriously, why would anyone just scream when T1 is seated and then stay quiet when T1 stands and then the moment T1 sits again, T2 starts screaming again!!! WTF!!! This baby is mental!!! But that’s exactly what happened today!!!

She would ask for cheese then change her mind and ask for something else. We could be ding-donging for ages only to find out later that actually she doesn’t want to eat at all, only to make our lives difficult. Many a time, I have laboriously slaved over the stove to cook her the most nutritious meals and what happens? She gives it the third finger. Sometimes, she refuses to change her diaper and runs away and we could be chasing her for an entire 10 minutes.

T1 and I, we’re a team and we gang up on T2 because she is so unreasonable but crazy funny. She is as fickled as the London weather and makes absolutely NO SENSE AT ALL. But cute as hell, which adds to our Achilles heel. BAH.
