UGH...okay, i only say that because little miss had a long night of crying...and it makes for one tired, short tempered mama.
I spilled hot coffee on my child this morning...she was standing underneath me & i had put one of those cups of garlic butter in the microwave-not thinking about what the top of it was made of...no where on it does it say do not microwave...and it caught on fire, and I had just started to take a drink of coffee & it made me jump & splashed coffee all over me, the counter & Alina...she started crying I pulled open the microwave door to put out the little mini fire...and then tended to Alina...luckily I'd put lots of milk in my coffee so it wasn't hot enough to really burn her..but still...
she's been a little hellion this morning, and by hellion i mean super sensitive to EVERYTHING, sitting down, wrong intonation in voice, her crayon broke and that was the end of the world! she's pooped twice one right after the other, her nose won't stop running & every little thing makes her cry. She's super sensitive & I am ready for teething to be done & over with!
The apartment is a complete & total wreck...I cleaned out the refrigerator last night so there are a ton of dishes to do. I just want to sit down and do nothing! I had an ounce of motivation this morning, so I made Alina eggs for breakfast, so I would have a moment to go go go...and no...she refused to eat them...and wanted to be under my feet and crying. I tried wearing her & she threw another fit about that...I'm staring at her with this hopeless feeling...going-what do you want?!?! I've tried everything! Just speak and tell mama what you need...I'm exhausted!
Then I look into her little eyes staring back at me, and my heart melts and I tell her I love her & she gives kisses and whatever it is that's surging through my emotionally wrecked self just flows away...and I thank god for giving me this most precious gift. Then 5 minutes later the process begins again.
It's only 10:15am and I am already in need of a nap...or more candy corn...
