Dealing with a 4 year old.

Can at times be impossible.

My daughter has always had this thing that if she didnt understand something, she didnt want anything to do with it. At times it was a tad annoying and frustrating, as she would have a melt down because a stuffed toy talked to her, or because she didnt want a jacket on.

Right now, this still hasn't ended. We went for a bike ride and I left her bike outside. Told her daddy will be home in a hour and we will go again. She decided to cry for the whole hour and sit by the door, because "she wants her bike home". Last night she had a meltdown because she wanted to take the dog to grandmas and refused to go without him. It seems like in the last few months she cries at the drop of a dime and cries 1-2 times a day.

Its always over such stupid and trivial stuff and at times you feel like pulling your hair out, in frustration.

I am not sure what the problem is, is it age? Is she bored? Is she tried and not getting enough sleep?

Whatever it is, let me tell you this stay at home mommy is counting down the days to preschool. I am looking forward to a job, where my co-worker wont have a meltdown because the cheese is not Mickey Mouse cheese.
