This is Deanna at her third b-day party. I don't know what has happened but it's like the day she turned 3 she became little miss independent, I can do all things by myself and I have a mighty attitude problem. So it really has been a long week fighting this out of her. Today we seem to have almost conquered it for now, not completely but getting there. She has gone since Monday with no treats whatsoever until today because she was finally manageable. Somedays I just want to give up. This single motherhood can be really really tough somedays, some weeks some months.................
