Today is Owen's second birthday! That means we are entering the "terrible twos," right?
I'm not worried. With him being my third child, I've learned that by age two, the toughest part is over. Not that two-year-olds aren't energetic and busy, but if they have been trained to obey from the time they were infants, age two is not a big deal! (I've always found 15-24 months to be much more difficult as it is an intense time of training.) By two, a child is old enough to clearly understand rules and commands, and follow them. So we go into this new year with much excitement and joy...

Happy Birthday, BoBo!
Happy, happy birthday, BoBo!!! We are glad you are a part of our family, and we can't wait to see you grow and bloom this next year.

Happy Birthday to your baby...for the time being! I agree. 2's aren't as bad as people say they are. I loved 2's with Bubbie! Hope y'all had a nice day celebrating!
ReplyDeleteGreat point!!! Now if only I were through that "training" bit with Tornado. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to your little guy. Lucy will be two a week from tomorrow. And I really feel like we are entering the two's for sure...maybe it is because she is my first. We have definitely worked on the training, and I agree...she understands obedience...and chooses when she is going to be or not.
