THESE FRUSTRATING DAYS

 

3 stickers for going to the toilet at nursery

On the Monday, W got 3 stickers for going to the toilet at nursery 3 times! Finally, I thought to myself. A breakthrough. Then he comes home and poos and wees in his pants. This happened again yesterday. And today when he got home there was a terrible poo incident. 

W has no aversion to poo. He sees it as a material, something akin to playdoh or mud maybe. He also does not take on our frustration or anger. I was telling him off at bedtime about how badly he did, and what he did was not right, blah blah blah...and he goes

"I am happy. Mummy are you happy?"

"No I am not happy. I am angry!"

He has also accepted that he won't be having ice cream because of this lack of care. He goes

"I won't lie on the floor and cry."

And today when he got home, he didn't complain one bit when E was eating an ice lolly in front of him. 

Reality distortion field. Steve Jobs was known to have his own reality distortion field. 

 Perhaps W will make a great CEO one day.
