Dear Cheyenne

Dear Cheyenne,

I love that you are outgoing and love to run about and play. I love that you have so much energy (at times I do anyway) and I love that you aren't the least bit shy. I love your big blue eyes and your contagious smile.
I do not, however, love you standing at my feet whining constantly (especially when I'm trying to put your sister down for a nap and she's crying as well). I don't love that you have now started throwing the biggest tantrums I've ever seen over something as silly as a cookie. I don't love that you have not napped for 5 days and you bang on your door (waking your sister) when you are supposed to be sleeping. I don't love that you took a PERMANENT marker to the steering wheel of the van and crayons to my walls. But I do love you. I always will, no matter what you do. But could you please tone it down just a notch?

Love,
Mommy
