I have invited the BFFs to come over for a picnic to celebrate Megan's second birthday. We were blessed with the good weather, sunny and breezy. So lucky!!!
Though the weather was perfect on Oct 10, Megan kicked off the party with her stormy emotions.
Megan was throwing serious tantrums since one week before her second birthday. That's indeed very scary, especially i am an impatient mom. Like all the hurdles we have overcome, we are looking at ways to pass through this drastic change. Books, google, FB discussions...
She successfully got everyone's attention on that day as she was losing control, and this stubborn girl was really persistent. We ended up cooling her down by the water and let her lying on the floor and had a complete meltdown. Afterwards, a big hug after all the drama, and she was OK after that.
There's no reason behind the lengthy meltdown, but obviously this is a frustration for her because she knew a lot of words but could not express them in a way to communicate her needs with us.
In the second part of the picnic, it was good as she was back to normal. She kept eating the cakes, and she opened three of them, and we always tried to finish them for her because we did not want her to eat so many cakes.
In conclusion, a very tiring day, but it's good to see the other BFF kids and had some fun together. We were so lucky as BFF aunties sent us awesome gifts. I am sharing the books one by one with her, otherwise, she is too overwhelmed.
