JT and I got home yesterday and he was asking for a snack. I was making goulash and normally he’ll eat half a can of kidney beans. I asked him if he wanted some kidney beans and he said NO he wanted a treat (candy). I said No candy and the tears flowed. I let him cry for a bit and asked if he wanted a granola bar. He was still crying. He looked up at me, said NO and kept crying. I sent him to his room to calm down (and so I wouldn’t lose my mind). While he was in there I could hear him singing,
The itsty (sniff) bitsy spider (sniff) went up the water spout (some more crying), down came the rain and… (and by now he is full out crying).
I couldn’t take it any more and went in there and snuggled with him for a little bit. He calmed down and ate his granola bar and then 2 bowls of goulash with extra kidney beans.
Its one thing seeing your child hurt but hearing the itsty bitsty spider in between tears is the saddest thing ever.
