Tantrums Times Two
We have hit the age of tantrums. For the most part, Hank seems to loss his patience a little quickly than Clara. That said, when Clara does eventually decide something is worth fighting over, her devotion to the cause is pretty intense. Sometimes it is like threading this small needle of what will and won't start a fit. We have noticed a few patterns. Clara throws a fit if she has specific toys taken away (usually by her dear brother). Hank has a fit if you need to go inside after spending time outside. No matter how long he has been outside and no matter how cold the temperature gets, his view is that there is plenty more time to spend with bikes and balls--his two objects that make life worth living. We continue to strategize on how to get through this lovely "stage" without pulling out our hair.
