Sophia drama

Sophia was in rare form this afternoon. When it was time to walk to pick up Jake, she refused to put on her coat or shoes. Huge drama about not being able to find them....please....I could see shoes from where I was standing!!!!!! And she had 3 coats hanging on hooks in her room. So, I loaded her up in the stroller in a hat, long sleeve shirt, leggings and socks. Kind of cold when it's 45 degrees. She cried all the way to school, the whole time we waited for Jake (and of course his class came out last) and all the way home. All of Northwood Elem. heard her!!

So...after a discussion about better choices...we get ready for the gym. Same deal. After much crying and screaming she comes running out of the house with a coat, barefoot, but holding tennis shoes. In the car (as she's putting on her shoes...with much drama) she says "hey wait a minute...what is wrong with everybody? Is everyone mad at me." Yep little one...you got it. I'm tired of the drama and so are your brothers. We're trying to ignore you!!!

I did think it was a little sad. And also interesting that she managed to pick on the fact that no one was happy with her!!

Maybe tomorrow will be better!!

that is so sad. and kind of cute, but sad. poor sophia. whenever you need to ship her off for a week, we'd be happy to take her. also, very cute presents - you sure are nice to your coaches.
