Mine wanted cookies instead of supper too 😁
She started tantruming and suddenly stopped got a stool and took some chocolate chips cookies from the oven tray that was on the counter and then felt very proud of herself.
I honestly didn't know how to react.

This goes back years but it’s so cute so I’ll add it.
I wouldn’t give him broccoli. It was Shabbos and I couldn’t hear it up.

I left the door to her room open, because she wanted it open

I was supposed to know that open means closed

I gave her the pink plate instead of the purple one

I put her in the bath. I took her out of the bath

I made her wear a coat outside

She wanted a different cup, not the one I gave her even though they're all identical

He pointed to what cereal he wanted, I poured it for him and he sat down all excited to eat.... Then his older sister sat down and poured herself another cereal. Suddenly the cereal he had was wrong and he throw a tantrum demanding that he have the one she was having 🙄

I cut his meat pizza into a slice instead of giving it to him whole.

Then he calmed down and said “Don’t worry mommy, I’ll glue it back together.
With marshmallow fluff.”

I let him.

He ate it all up.

She got a scrape on her knee. Every time she had to pull down her tights or anything touched her knee there was another tantrum Sad

Her morah didn’t wave bye from the window after she left playgroup.

I didn’t let her eat chocolate chips for supper.

She wanted to close her bottle after I filled it up with water.

Every night when putting her to sleep we go thru the family “gitte nacht totty, gitte nacht mommy… the rest of my kids and then her .
She burst out crying one night “I wanted to be first!”
Meaning she wanted to say first gitte nacht herself and then the rest of the family.
Yep sure enough this is what we do now every night!!

OMG!

5 yo hasn’t had one in a long time. Today she was at a friend’s house till way after supper time and I think it’s because she was very hungry. Daddy washed her hands after the bath but she wanted herself. For an hour she cried and screeched her lungs out, I wanna wash my hands!!! But I can’t now because daddy did it already!!!! I wanna wash my hands!!! Bh I was able to stay calm
