I love my beautiful daughter with all my heart. However I've been trying to study and get my continuing education hours completed so I'm a little behind on the housework.
I LOVE that she loves me and wants to be with me at all times including when I'm in the bathroom, cleaning, or studying, or trying to load the dishwasher. What frustrates me is that she wants to close the dishwasher and she wants to play literally under my feet. I can't seem to make her understand that our very small kitchen doesn't have enough room for her to play safely in there while i'm trying to clean.
I've read about some mom's putting their children in a play pen while they are cleaning and I've considered doing that, but I honestly don't want to hear her screaming the ENTIRE time I'm trying to do a task. I certainly can not put her in one and have her screaming while I'm trying to work or study.
Today I have her watching her Your Baby Can Read dvd and have been afforded enough time to sit and compose this blog. I Refuse to allow the TV to be a baby sitter and I know that God will help me figure out what works best for baby and I.
Lord, please show me how to teach my daughter at this young age. Help me to not loose my temper with her or to raise my voice. Help me to be her mentor, and mother not her friend. Help me to show her your love and mercy and to provide her with solid teachings. In Jesus Name. Amen
