Today has been a lot better so far, even with a toddler to tend. My mom's trying to get her to take a nap now, and I'm trying to get my cat to sleep in the other room. My job seems considerably easier, although I will admit that he is very similar to taking care of a baby, as he wakes me up at all hours of the night asking for drinks, to play, and yummy treats. He's petrified of the toddler, and I think that has a lot to do with where I bought him from. The lady that I purchased him from ran a daycare from out of her house.
Anyways, my cousin's daughter calls me mom. I have no clue why, because we don't look alike. Maybe we sound alike. It really doesn't matter, I guess, because I will still be happy to give her back to her mother. Tajsha has this terrible hitting habit when she doesn't want to do something. I didn't spank her when she hit me and grabbed my skin on my face, but I did grab her arms and tell her no. The tyke is so intelligent she's going to be a handful when she gets older---she's a handful now.
After spending several days with a 3 and 6 year old, I feel your pain. The 6 year old gets violent, and it is hard to get really mad when he would hit. Hopefully things got easier!
